nRF Connect SDK extension for VS Code no longer working

[Mike Austin (LPI)]

My nRF Connect SDK extension in VS Code did an auto update this morning, and now my whole IDE is non-functional.

This is the error I get when I go to the Quick Setup

It seems unable to find any of the toolchain stuff.

I've literally uinstalled and reinstalled everything associated with nRF (Command Line Tools, Toolchain Manager, the SDK, Visual Studio Code) numerous times, as well as deleting the:

.vscode

.nrfutil

.nrfconnect-apps

directories, but its still coming up with this error.

It also seems to be "remembering" some of my old directories and workspaces, which for the life of me I can't understand because I thought I'd hosed all of that old info out with all of the above.

I'm basically unable to do any development, because my IDE is unable to do a build.

Has anyone seen this issue before and able to provide me with a fix?

Cheers,

Mike

OH wow thank you! I just figured since this was my first install I was doing something wrong. What bad luck on my part, so much time wasted. Thank you so much!

Things are normally more robust than this.  Your timing just was a bit off ;-)

But my dev colleagues are all having the same issue with this latest update, so clearly Nordic had the work-experience kid on beta testing before they rolled this update out!

Thanks Mike Austin and mansen motors for reporting this to us. We are currently working on the fix and this will soon be released with the new version which will be released by the weekend.

Best Regards,
