What to Do If GitHub Copilot Is Down
Check your internet connection
Before assuming GitHub Copilot is down, verify that your internet connection is working. Try loading a different website like google.com. If other sites also fail to load, the problem is with your connection, not GitHub Copilot.
Clear your browser cache and cookies
Corrupted cache data can prevent GitHub Copilot from loading properly. Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again. In most browsers you can do this from Settings > Privacy > Clear Browsing Data.
Try a different browser or device
If GitHub Copilot does not load in your current browser, try a different one (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). You can also try accessing GitHub Copilot from your phone or a different computer to rule out device-specific issues.
Flush your DNS cache
Stale DNS records can prevent your device from connecting to GitHub Copilot. On Windows, open Command Prompt and run "ipconfig /flushdns". On Mac, open Terminal and run "sudo dscacheutil -flushcache". On Linux, run "sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches".
Try using a VPN
If GitHub Copilot is blocked in your region or your ISP is having routing issues, connecting through a VPN may resolve the problem. This is especially helpful if GitHub Copilot works for others but not for you.
Check for capacity limits or rate limiting
AI services like GitHub Copilot can experience high demand during peak hours, leading to slow responses or temporary unavailability. If GitHub Copilot is slow or returning errors, wait a few minutes and try again. Check GitHub Copilot's official status page or social media for announcements about capacity issues.
