VS Code - Strange Popup after updating SDK

Hi,

i upgraded the nRF Connect SDK from 1.8.0 to 1.9.1.
During the install i have chosen a different install path - to have the same current path in different locations.

Now, each time i start VS Code i see a popup with the old location and have to select the new one ("Change" opens a dropdown).

Does anybody know where the information about the old location is stored?

    Thanks

  • Hello, 

    In VS Code open the Command Palette (CTRL+SHIFT+P) then type in settings and open workspace settings.

    From here you can search for nrf-connect in the search field. Note that there is both a user and a workspace setting.

    Kind regards,
    Øyvind

  • Hi,

    the location of the old installation is (was) c:\Tools\nordsemi\1.8.0.
    I even renamed the dir - the popup persists. No surprise.
    In the settings there is a "devicetree.zephyr", but it is empty.
    When i generate support information there is no "nordsemi" anywhere.
    I tried "env" in a VS Code nRF Terminal - no "nordsemi".

    I tried some finds from wsl in /mnt/c and in the tree where my workspaces are:

    find . -name "*.json" -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l nordsemi | tee /tmp/grep.out

    find . \( -name "*.yaml" -o -name "*.yml" \) -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l nordsemi | tee /tmp/g
    rep.yml.out

    I created some test files with "nordsemi" - they were found.

    I think we should ignore it for now. I can work. When i find the solution i will post it.

        Thanks
