@thameurr Do you mean ghost text suggestions or those from an inline chat conversation (Cmd+I)?

I have the same issue:

Version: 1.93.1 Commit: 38c31bc77e0dd6ae88a4e9cc93428cc27a56ba40 Date: 2024-09-11T17:20:05.685Z Electron: 30.4.0 ElectronBuildId: 10073054 Chromium: 124.0.6367.243 Node.js: 20.15.1 V8: 12.4.254.20-electron.0 OS: Darwin arm64 23.6.0

For me it's when the changes suggested by copilot in the chat are applied. See the 'Saving' spinning wheel on the bottom status bar which has been there 5 mins trying to save some small text files. 'Save As' also doesn't work.

I'm having the same issue. In my case, the ghost test appeared, it was not good so I pressed escape but then I can't save any new modification made to the file. I've been getting that bug a lot in the last days, it's quite annoying.

If I try to close the file, it even asks if I want to save but if I click save, it's not doing anything and my file stays open.

I can also save other files without problem.

@jrieken , BTW here are the steps to reproduce:

1. Create new file hello.ps1 in VSCode
2. set the content to Write-Host "Hello World" and save it.
3. Open the copilot chat and ask it to change to goodbye world. Click Apply In Editor button that appears when hovering over the suggested codeblock.
4. File > Save. Doesn't work
5. File > Save As... and saving a different filename will create a 0b file and never set the content.

Hi, once I get suggestion from the copilot I accept it , then the code change and everything fine, the problem that when I want to save to test the code , im not able to save and keep hanging, I can open another file or edit another file but only the file that I accept suggestion stop working .

[mcx808]

Update from me: still on VSCode 1.93.1 but the latest copilot chat extension (2024-09-23, 09:15:26) now included a 'waiting to accept changes' in the saving dialogue on the bottom status bar.

When I saw this, I noticed there was also a dialogue over the changed code with accept or reject. Once I hit accept the file could be saved.
