Installation trouble and will not start #168

I have tried to install this server using a few methods that fail

Copilot command /plugin install microsoftdocs/mcp "failed to locate the exact name pair" and suggests alternatives.

Extension search for @mcp learn fails to return any results

I installed it directly from extensions when searching for full name, however it would not start with the following messages returned:
