All morning I've received this message "Sorry, I wasn't able to respond to that. Is there something else I can help with?"

I'm also having the same issue. Thinking it may be a widespread issue.

Getting the same thing here. Even just saying "Hello Copilot" results in the error message.

I had this issue just now. Killing Copilot and restarting didn't help. I also tried shutting down everything and then starting Copilot and that didn't work either. Finally, I rebooted and it started working again. I suggest trying to reboot and seeing if that helps. It worked for me just now.

No - it's not down. It simply cannot provide the answer to the question you asked. This might be related to the topic of the question, the way question was formed, or potentially transient issues affecting its functionality

I don't think marcin is completely coherent in what is going on here. I think it's foolish when people respond as if they know the answer to a problem which they have no idea what's going on. how can you say that co-pilot cannot provide an answer to the question we ask when the simple question is a hello? or a how are you? And that not just one person but multiple people are having this problem? please don't be foolish and assume that you know the solution by saying that it just simply doesn't know how to respond to the question asked.
