Github Copilot Extension for Visual Studio now incomplatible with Visual Studio 2022 17.10 preview 2 #113380

Select Topic AreaBug BodyIt was working fine earlier in a already running instance. When I started a new instance I got the message: Now the extensions are disabled and they will not work. Uninstalling them and reinstalling them gives the same prompt. It looks to be happening across multiple machines for me. |

Replicating same issue here (and for other users we've spoken to as well):
(Also I cannot update to the latest version, but other users on the latest are still hitting this issue.) Edit: Managed to get them to update by doing one at a time - items are still flagged as incompatible. |

@ctolkien if you uninstalled, reinstalled and still have the "incompatible" issue, would you mind filing a bug via "Report a Problem"?

Folks, we've found the bug and we are in the process on resolving it. We're testing a fix to this and we also recommend upgrading to VS 17.10 preview 3 once available. Thanks, |

@ayim What about your test subscription? I’m trying to register - it immediately bans my account, I’ve already paid $10, but they came back and I can’t make the payment again! |

@kurt-melony The best place to go for answers to account-specific questions like this one is opening a ticket on our Support page. Please open a ticket with them :) |

@shanepowell a favour to ask - if uninstall and reinstall didn't work for you, could you file a bug via the "Report a Problem" feature in Visual Studio?

Unless it is now built into Preview 3.0? I have removed the plugins and am still getting Copilot integrations, and now have this in the UI: This was not in the documented release notes. |

Where do you see this? I have removed everything after the update and co-pilot simple no longer exists anywhere within visual studio for me. |

It seems unified extension is into action - https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/introducing-the-new-copilot-experience-in-visual-studio/ There is no need of extension in the latest version 3.0 preview. |

I've found the same as everybody else, but I noticed that when I uninstalled Copilot Chat, that the functionality is somehow still there even though it is not listed as an extension. I tried a reinstall, this time there were no messages about disabling it, but when I went into the extension list, it was disabled. I haven't bothered reinstalling Copilot chat, because as I said its still there. |

Ah, I see that article that was posted says its integrated now into Visual Studio (in the preview). I'm surprised that wasn't linked in the Preview release notes so that you would know. Funnily enough I asked the chat feature whether it was an extension or inbuilt, and it replied extension, so its unware of the change. |

I've just stumbled upon this. I'm on VS2022 17.10.0 preview 3, I only have GH Copilot (Chat is not enabled in my organization). still getting that Ideas? |

|
I've contacted support, it seems that the internal integration (the one that comes with previee3) requires chat enabled. Which is a bit confusing, since chat is a separate feature from the copilot completion and could be potentially disabled by an owning organization, rendering the whole VS integration invalid. |

Sorry what does it mean to have "chat enabled" or not? |

@IrisPeter Copilot chat is a separate feature from Copilot completion itself. In this case, VS2022 17.10.0 Preview3 & Preview4 require the Chat feature to be enabled in order for the whole copilot integration to work in VS |

Hi Eugene, Sorry what I was getting at was that I'm not aware of how you enable or disable this component other than not installing it as part of your workload |

@IrisPeter it could be enabled/disabled in you Github account settings section. In my case it is organization owned so they didn't allow us to use it yet. |

Following the upgrade to 17.10.0, I have the following appear: I try uninstalling this extension and get: The errors from log are: VS disables the extension and relaunches. However, managing extensions seems to enable it. I would be great to get rid of it if it no longer needed. |

I have no idea if this is related but I've lost the capability for VS to show potential corrections (e.g. can't access to a type where it would offer adding the right namespace as part of it's list of suggestions). This is on both my PCs with Visual Studio 17.10.0 installed. Having had the problems with the error I've shown on here, I removed the Copilot extensions before the upgrade. It doesn't have these popup issues about Copilot, but it has lost the pull down box at the side of the message when you hover.

What a joke! I reverted back to 17.9.7 and then all my settings were gone, including Github Copilot! Well, at least I can use 17.10 - not that I need that specific version (yet). :))) Later edit: After I've updated again, all my settings/extensions are in the 17.10 and the issue is gone! :) |

I've removed the Coplot completions extension using Visual Studio Installer by removing it from the extensions list. I had just upgraded to 17.10.1 so I don't know if that was a factor. I no longer get the warning dialog about the CopilotPackage not loading correctly. Thank you for the suggestion, @oising . |

I am having the same issues as reported here. The one wrinkle that is driving me crazy is that I cannot seem to uninstall GitHub Copilot or GitHub Copilot Chat in order to just use Visual Studio 2022 v17.10 without it. Every attempt to uninstall seems to either say it was successful of fail and then when starting Visual Studio it keeps repeating the issues with something called "ConversationsUIPackage" and "GitHub Copilot Chat" which I thought I had uninstall and/or disabled. Is there any update or another thread tracking this issue? |

It would be nice to get an answer here. Anytime I try to uninstall the github copilot extensions I get logs like this: 5/29/2024 1:32:49 PM - Skipping non-applicable package Microsoft.VisualStudio.OfficeDeveloperTools.WindowsIdentityFoundation.Msu: The current OS Version '10.0.22631.0' is not in the supported version range '(,6.2)'. |

We apologize for the confusion. Starting in 17.10, Visual Studio now has GitHub Copilot built in! This means the extensions that were available in prior versions are incompatible with 17.10+ versions of Visual Studio. Instead, Copilot is available via as a single component, "GitHub Copilot", in the Visual Studio Installer, and should be available individually or with any workload. |

Thanks for clarifying. There are a few different cases that might be occurring that we are currently aware of and will be available in the next release (not everyone is experiencing these, so it's hard to diagnose everyone's individual issues in a single ticket🙂): |

This would have been worth an e-Mail to the VS Administrators. If you must support > 10.000 users in an enterprise (those are the people that pay for your income with their subscription fees) a breaking change without an announcement is a disaster! |

@hjrb Except it's not really a breaking change -- the requirement to install an entirely redundant extension isn't a requirement in itself. The functionality is still there, just built in. |

It breaks VS after updating it. The update of VS should uninstall it. |

"same issue?" What issue exactly? There are at least half a dozen different variations of the "problem" on this thread. Ultimately the issue is you need to uninstall the extension because it's now BUILT IN to VS. Uninstall either via the VS installer, or via the extensions menu. One of them will work. |

Hello
I'm in a new machine with a fresh installation of visual studio.
The error happens when I'm trying install the extension
Thanks

I found about it meanwhile. This would have been worth an e-Mail to the VS Administrators. If you must support > 10.000 users and pay for a service an announcement about a breaking change is the minimum. |

Nothing is broken except expectations about the (redundant) extension. The functionality is still there. |

It does also affect the latest version of the regular VS.

If you're installing a preview, the minimum expectations is that you read the release notes?

Sorry. But after the recent support experience with MS support I decided to not continue to waste my precious lifetime with creating support requests. Neither using the unified paid support and especially not creating GitHub issues. Futile. Never getting any satisfactory outcomes. I would appreciate to be not flooded with easily avoidable errors all the time. Do your QA yourselves |

Folks, we've found the bug and we are in the process on resolving it.
UPDATED WORKAROUND: Uninstall the GitHub Copilot and GitHub Copilot Chat extensions from the Browse tab of the extension manager. Reinstall.
We're testing a fix to this and we also recommend upgrading to VS 17.10 preview 3 once available.
Thanks,
