vscode-pull-request-github: Activating extension failed

  • Extension version: v0.20.0
  • VSCode Version: 1.50.0-insider
  • OS: Windows 10 x64 10.0.20221

Steps to Reproduce:

GitHub extension sidebar is not showing any issues or pull requests. DevTools console contains an error message:

Activating extension 'GitHub.vscode-pull-request-github' failed: t.onDidChange is not a function.

First appeared when installed in WSL remote, but also checked when running locally - same issue with the same error in the console.

Installing the nightly build gets the extension working in Insiders again.

Make sure you are not in a restricted mode workspace.
