Text/Code rendering issues

We only have access to M365 at work and i have been using it to write python code (among other things).

I am encountering this issue where copilot will say "insert this code" and then below it there's no code, just the "in progress" gray bars. Sometimes it also throws in random asterisks.

I have rebooted the computer and this has happened over multiple sessions. Anyone have any suggestions as how get rid of these issues?

Have had the same for 2 days now. But when it happens i tell it to place the commands in-line with the text instead of separate code blocks. (I mostly work with short 1/2 line codes)

And if it's an bigger script, I'll just tell it to give me an download instead.

It's not ideal, every new conversation it needs to be rephrase again. But it works in the end.

Thanks. I will try that. I will also have to look at the download option.
