Is everyone seeing this using the pre-release version of the Copilot Chat extension? Does it help to switch to the Release version? (Copilot Chat extension, not Copilot)
Yes and yes for me. (I also first made the mistake of downgrading the Copilot extension, not the Copilot Chat extension)
To fix this, you can switch to the Release version of the Copilot Chat extension, and also click + to start a new chat session.
In general, there's no advantage to using the pre-release version of Copilot Chat with VS Code Stable. This time, a change went out that should have only gone to Insiders. Sorry for the churn!
To recover your chat session which is now broken due to having responses with bad data, if the newer chat request rows load, you can click the X in the top right corner of the request. Delete all the recent requests that have bad data, and you may have to reload the window, but then you should be able to load the older requests in that chat session normally.
We also have an updated pre-release going out without the bad change. But, I still recommend using Copilot Chat Stable with VS Code Stable.
One other issue I've seen, which is likely related, is not being able to create new chats.
Solution rn is just to revert to an older release.
@ReedGraff that would be a different issue, maybe the extension/extension host process is not starting. You can open a new issue for that.
We've published an update to the pre-release to fix this, so I'm closing this issue, but I'd still recommend not using the pre-release extension if you're using VS Code Stable.
@roblourens what are some verification steps for this issue?
@rzhao271 Try asking any question that includes a file/symbol link in the response and make sure the full answer is rendered
Steps to Reproduce:
Request anything in the chat box
Wait for it to generate (it will start streaming text)
Wait for it to finish, and the text will disappear.
