nrf connect vscode extension fresh install not working on macOS

RE: nrf connect vscode extension fresh install not working on macOS

I have it working now. I never did find a solution until I took a rather drastic path and reinstalled my OS on my Mac. It's a dev machine that I have been using for about 2 years. I had all kinds of tweaks due to other development tools I have used in the past. After a fresh OS install, I then installed vscode. I went into the security settings and gave vscode full disk access. Then I installed the Nrf connect extension pack. Then I pushed the install SDK button which it turns out also installs the tool chain (so I never pushed the install tool chain button). I also let the extension install the version of segger JLink that it wanted rather than just grabbing the latest using home-brew.

It seems the extension is pretty brittle and it would be nice if they had some more meaningful error messages that would direct you to what you need to change to make it work. I banged my head for long enough that I was willing to take the nuclear option and reinstall my OS. If you google you can see there are lots of people getting rejected trying to use the tools.

I tried doing a chmod and opening up the permissions on the /opt/nordic directory. That did not fix it for me.

Nordic, I love the extension and the fact that you did it in vscode. Please put some effort into figuring out why things are so brittle and many people are getting rejected installing or upgrading the tools. It is a barrier to entry for some people. It probably would be well invested money and help you sell lots more chips if more resources were invested in making the vscode extension more stable.

Hi,

I’m assisting a student who is encountering a very similar issue when trying to install the SDK via the VS Code extension. The SDK downloads successfully, but during installation the following error occurs:

[16:07:23] nrfutil-sdk-manager install v3.2.4 --sdk-path /opt/nordic/ncs/v3.2.4 --type nrf: Download SDK v3.2.4
[16:19:05] ... success
[16:19:11] Verified download: success
[16:19:43] Unpacked SDK tarball: success
[west]: exited with code -2.
Error: Install directory must be '/opt/nordic/ncs' on macOS.
nrfutil-sdk-manager: Error: Install directory must be '/opt/nordic/ncs' on macOS.
Couldn't parse nRF Util output: Error: Install directory must be '/opt/nordic/ncs' on macOS.

What’s strange is that I am also using a Mac (MacBook Pro M1), and the installation works perfectly fine on my machine. Another student with a Mac also did not encounter this issue.

The problem persists even when installing the SDK directly using nrfutil, so it does not seem to be specific to the VS Code extension.

The affected machine is a MacBook Air M2. My initial suspicion is that this might be related to permissions on /opt/nordic/ncs, or possibly something failing during environment setup or path validation. For the moment we haven't found any solution...

Here are the contents of the nrfutil-sdk-manager.log

So any suggestions on why this is not working or what version of the vscode extension I should try?

Where is the log located that it mentions when it errors out when I run the command in the terminal. Maybe I can send that to you?

RE: nrf connect vscode extension fresh install not working on macOS

ChetRf — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 14:58:36 GMT

I did try rolling back to version 2026.1.448 of the extension as described in one of the tickets I was asked to look at. And I have the same problems. So my attempt at the command line is in the vscode integrated terminal, but it is using version 2026.1.448.

Please check below installation guide as well in case you have not checked it:

Installing the nRF Connect SDK

RE: nrf connect vscode extension fresh install not working on macOS

Ressa — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 14:41:00 GMT

Try to manually register SDK with CMake by running below command:

nrfutil sdk-manager sdk register v3.2.4

or:

nrfutil sdk-manager sdk register v3.2.4 --use-current-environment

I attempted a reinstall. Before doing that I verified that vscode was enabled in the "Full Disk Access". Still broken. Here is my log file from vscode. I am looking at the other tickets and trying them. No success yet.

RE: nrf connect vscode extension fresh install not working on macOS

Ressa — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 10:23:57 GMT

Hi,

It seems the SDK installation is incomplete or corrupted.
Have you seen below tickets? And have you tried their solution?

(+) vscode extension can not found the sdk in macOS - Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone
(+) Persistent Error with MacOs NRF Connect for VS Code installing SDKs - Nordic Q&A - Nordic DevZone - Nordic DevZone

VS Code may not have permission to write to /opt/nordic. If you have not done it, try to enable Full Disk Access for VS Code in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access.
After that, do a full clean reinstall.

I also installed the extension pack as mentioned above. Realizing my support info will be different based on that, here is the latest generated support info:
