GitHub Copilot Got Blocked on Vs Code

Body

I was using GitHub Copilot smoothly on VS Code last month but suddenly since last week, I was not able to use GitHub Copilot anymore.
I try reinstalling, restart and even install the VS Code Insider version, Copilot still not working. I also try to tweak the settings like turning off SSL, but the issue does not go away. I am not sure is my antivirus causing this issue as I am using Kaspersky and when I disabled the protection, I seem to be able to use GitHub Copilot again.

I check the log it keeps showing:

2025-03-30 00:03:59.145 [info] [certificates] Removed 15 expired certificates
2025-03-30 00:04:05.824 [info] [certificates] Removed 15 expired certificates
2025-03-30 00:04:21.567 [error] [default] Error sending telemetry FetchError: read ECONNRESET

  type: 'system',
  _name: 'FetchError',
  code: 'ECONNRESET',
  errno: -4077,
  erroredSysCall: 'read'
}

Please help me to look into the issue where I will attach the diagnostic down there:

Another problem in addition to not able to use GitHub Copilot is I cannot search addons on VS Code since it returns fetching failed. I have to turn off Kaspersky Protection to make VS Code usable again. Anyone facing this issue?

This is the output from developer tools:

Thanks for your feedback and for using Copilot in VS Code, and I'm sorry to hear about the trouble. It'd be a huge help if you could file issues like these in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-copilot-release/issues. I'd also generally recommend checking out our docs: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/overview.
