VS Code - Strange Popup after updating SDK

Question

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

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
