Hi Arun,

After searching around it looks like this spawn error -86 may be because you are trying to run something that is not compatible with you system architecture. It seems to happen on a Mac when trying to run something which is compiled for a different architecture, i.e. running something meant for x86_64 architecture on an ARM64 machine. etc

If it's the VSCode extension, then you could try to open it using Rosetta.

Hi Priyanka , Will do that in the next few days. My work was getting blocked on the issue, So I moved back to the old intel based Mac to continue.

Each time I make some changes to build configuration, the ACTIONS menu disappears, I have to uninstall/reinstall the extension to make it reappear.
Also has issues with debugging, where it complaints about -86 error. and not able to launch debug

Following up with another round of uninstall-reinstall of the extension from VisualStudio Code extension menu fixed the ACTIONS.

I installed the sdk/toolchain from the nRF Connect for Desktop, and the welcome menu appeared on the visual studio code UI. Got as far as building an app by creating the build configuration. But things under 'Actions' like build, debug, flash etc are missing.

I will try doing that at the next chance I get. When I opened the nRF Connect for Desktop, it recommended to use the extension to manage SDK/toolchain.

Hi Aaron,

Did you try opening the VSCode via the Toolchain Manager in the nRF Connect for Desktop application?

Do you have this issue then too?

Regards,

Priyanka
