Hi,
Today the nRF Connect extension isn't working anymore: it doesn't show or let me select an SDK or toolchain.
I have tried on 2 separate computers where it was still working fine last week.
I have tried reinstalling the extension, without success.

No versions of the SDK available for selection, yet they are installed.
Intalling a new copy of the SDK leads to the same issue.
However, selecting "Open SDK Directory" correctly lists all local installations of the SDK.

What can I do about this?
Below is the support information from the nRF Connect extension.
