During the Front End Development > JavaScript course, whenever I start Workspace to try out the various skill tests, the code is already filled out and the problems are already solved. Why is this and how do I fix it?

Depending on the Course and associated Workspace, sometimes the complete code is pre-loaded so you have the completed reference and sometimes, just the basics are loaded and you complete the rest as the lessons move forward. It depends on where in the course you open the workspace.
This isn't something that you, yourself, can fix. If you want, you can send a message to the Treehouse Support Team, and they will forward your concerns to the instructor. Also, after each video, there is a "Rate" option that I believe does have a comment section.
Myself, personally, I prefer the completed code included. I then just follow along with the video, listening to the explanation to why each line is there. I do believe, however, that one should have the choice of completed code or starter code, because everyone does learn differently.
:)
