Thank you for the information, the issue is being worked on.

Until the issue is fixed, your workaround is probably the best solution.

Hi Einar,

well, the version did not solve the issue, but I found a workaround. I guess the "ü" in my username is the issue and nRF Connect installs by default in the user-folder.

Hence, I moved the whole folder "nrfconnect" from my user-folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\nrfconnect and it works fine, as far as I can tell now.

Do you see an issue with this workaround or is there a better solution?

Tnx and best regards

Buehli

Hi Einar,

the error reported in the console output (my reply above from yesterday) can also be observed in the other tools of nRF Connect for Desktop v3.12.0. I checked it for:

Programmer 3.0.4
Toolchain Manager v1.2.0
Direct Test Mode v2.0.3
Bluewooth Low Energy v4.0.1

an I got exaclty the same error message in all these cases.

Further information: My username contains a "ü". I've seen tha app.asar is located in the userprofile.

Hope this helps for finding the cause and a solution...

Best,

Buehli

Hi Einar,

there's indeed an error. Here's the console output:

Uncaught TypeError: nrfdl_create_context failed: 50

Could you check the developer console in the Programmer app (ctrl + shift + i), to see if there is anything there when it crashes?

Best regards,
