VS Code 1.88 is not compatible with GitHub Copilot

Open chitoan77 opened this issue 10 months ago • 8 comments

Type: Bug

The new VS Code version 1.88 has an error that it doesn't work with GitHub Copilot, I have to re-intall the pre version of 1.86, I got this situation twice (yesterday and today) I am not sure why VS Code 1.88 is not compatible with GitHub Copilot so raise this issue for reviewing.

VS Code version: Code 1.86.2 (903b1e9d8990623e3d7da1df3d33db3e42d80eda, 2024-02-13T19:40:56.878Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045 Modes:

Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.88.1. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

I can't use GitHub Copilot at the VS Code new version 1.88, I reverted to re-installing the stable VS Code version of 1.86, and I can use GitHub Copilot. I reported the issue, the environment info was captured at that time after re-installation.

I can confirm I'm on 1.89 and still can't use Copilot in the editor. I can only use the copilot tab. "Start in Editor" is grayed out. No errors from Copilot log or Copilot Chat logs. "ctrl+i" start inline chat, fix this, etc all broken.

I have checked and recognized the issue has been resolved in the new version 1.88.1. Resolved.

I upgraded to VS code 1.88.1 and my copilot stopped working.

Here's what I see in VS code now:

Downgrading VS code to 1.87.2 and switching copilot to a previous version helped to get it working again.

By the way, I'm using the Windows x64 build of VS code and remoting into WSL2 with the Microsoft WSL extension. Not sure if the copilot is running on the windows side or linux (WSL) side, but copilot does not work in this configuration with VS code 1.88.1

Same problem here. I am using the latest VScode version at the moment (1.89.1) and WSL2 on Windows 11. I can only use Copilot Chat. I don't have the Copilot icon in the status bar anymore, and I'm not getting any suggestion while coding.

I was seeing a greyed out "Start in Editor" option under the Copilot section of the context menu, and similarly could only get Chat to work, but not launch the inline editor (which lead me here).

In my case, I just needed to try turning it off and on again: fully quitting and restarting VS Code returned Copilot to normal.

Which version of github copilot did you find worked with vscode 1.87.2 @abinalexpothen ?
