• Create a fresh, blank Profile with no settings imported
• Install GitHub Copilot
• ❓ The Copilot extension walkthrough doesn't pop automatically

If I try with fresh user and extensions directory, the Copilot walkthrough pops up without issue, and I would've expected a Profile to also be a fresh start.

Makes sense. I'll work on updating this scenario.

So I am currently testing the getting started scenario. I created a new profile with no extensions and empty settings. When I clicked on install Github Copilot, the extension main page opened. Is this is walkthrough page that is mentioned in the golden scenario TPI?

The view I have:

I am on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 (23G93) and Insiders

@aiday-mar this is great feedback. What you see in the screenshot you shared is the README, which is different from the walkthrough the scenario refers to (supposed to be the getting started experience the completions extension contributes):

I'll make sure this distinction is clearer in the scenario doc since your question totally makes sense. And your experience (only getting README and not getting started walkthrough experience) is in-line with what I experienced in this issue.
