1. go to user folder where the nrfConnect_apps folder was created

2. type Command+Shift+Dot to show the invisible file

3. delete the .west folder.

4. type Command+Shift+Dot to mask the invisible file

Problem solved

I have found that when I had folder to worspace from the VC file menu, nrfConnect extension reload and I lose the ability to select the SDK. A message show; an sdk inferred from the workspace, so another cannot be selected

Deleting the folder in the Explorer tab revert the problem...

I have solved the first problem. I went in the /user/library/application support folder and delete the «code» folder. Then I deinstalled the nrfConnect 2.2.99 SDK. I installed the 2.0.0 SDK. Restart Visual Code (VC) from the nfrConnect apps. In VC, the nrfConnect menu was then working normally. I could select the SDK and the toolchain. I then quit VC and installed the 2.2.9 SDK from nrfConnect. I restart VC from nrfConnect and it work. I can access both SDK and toolchains.

I have not solved the issue with the application folder yet. I have created a new folder under user/nrfconnect_apps with VC and another one under user/document/nrfConnect_apps. I still have the message: cannot create an new application within an existing west workspace...

This is the actual settings for the nrf Connect:

Toolchains : ${nrf-connect.toolchain:2.2.99-dev3}

Topdir: ${nrf-connect.sdk:2.2.99-dev3}

Toolchains is working fine. I have tried to enter : /opt/nordic/ncs/v2.2.99-dev3 but that does not work either.

Hello

You should be able to set the Toolchain Path and Topdir in

File > Preferences > Settings > Extensions > nRF Connect

If you're still not able to set the environment, you might have to set up a new workspace (make a new "applications folder" and open it as a workspace in VS Code)

Best regards,
