Problem

It keeps being stuck in Loading when I hover on a variable/method/import.

Background info

  • Using VS Code version 1.95.2 for a typescript project
  • Other ts projects don’t have the issue
  • This project is fairly large, but other people don’t have this problem on VS Code
  • It had been working fine a few days ago for me, only me making very minor code changes
  • Manually updated VS Code from 1.8x to 1.95.2 a few days ago

Attempts tried:

  • Restart VS Code alone –> does not work
  • Reboot PC –> works temporarily (stops working after an hour or so)
  • Switch Intellisense typescript version from vs code version to workspace version –> works temporarily after restarting VS Code alone
  • Switch Intellisense typescript version to use the nightly ts version as seen in this git issue –> works temporarily after restarting VS Code alone
  • Clean reinstall of the same version 1.95.2 –> does not work
  • Should be unrelated: npm install again after deleting node_modules and package-lock.json –> does not work

Thinking of now experimenting with clean installing to the older version I had. Or migrating to use other IDEs.

Edit: I find that if I disable the github copilot extension, Intellisense works fine again.

  1. I had a similar issue today. The only way to make it work is to disable GitHub Copilot and create a new chat dialog instead of leaving the old conversation there. I guess the issue is caused by GitHub copilot’s trying to mess around the workspace

  2. Same issue here, copilot was the reason. I tried everything including,

    • Delete all vscode extensions
    • Reinstall only needed extensions

    Still the same.

    However, when i disabled copilot extension it started working again.
