how to disable the IDE to generate asterisks '*' in either comment line?
/*
*
*
*
*/
should be simply by default
/*

Isn't that annoying? This is a built-in behavior of the RSyntaxTextEditor editor used by the Arduino IDE. There is currently no way to turn it off, though Arduino has requested that such an option be added:
The silly thing is that the editor adds these annoying extra asterisks, but then Tools > Auto Format takes them away!:
It is possible to configure the AStyle formatter tool to not remove the asterisks with a custom configuration, but that's going in the wrong direction.
