A week ago, I started a free trial with GitHub Copilot. Previously I installed C# Dev Kit in Visual Studio Code. Once I restarted VS Code, I got a message saying that the C# Dev Kit would not run because GitHub Copilot was activated. So, should I remove C# Dev Kit? I tried searching for the answer to this question but didn't get any useful responses.

    Both should work together. There are, however, some caveats. In particular, as per https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/csharp/cs-dev-kit-faq

    Whole line completions are disabled when the GitHub Copilot extension is enabled to allow you to take advantage of the more advanced AI completion capabilities. You can verify that Copilot is enabled by checking if the Copilot logo is present in the lower right corner of VS Code
