PlatformIO IDE installation has been suspended, because PlatformIO IDE Installer is already started in another window

PlatformIO Core

Hi,

I’m making a new install on debian 13 (testing) with VSCode (last one). I first make an install which break. Maybe it’s because debian don’t have anymore python symlink, so needed to install the pythontopython3 package.
I uninstall platformio thrue VSCode and try to reinstall but i get the message :
PlatformIO IDE installation has been suspended, because PlatformIO IDE Installer is already started in another window.

I try i think everything :

  • deleting .platformio
  • installing with get-platformio.py
  • restarting VSCode
  • rebooting
    I still get the error. I have the icone of platformio inside VSCode. Launching pio home don’t work, but if i use terminal, it install home and launch thrue the navigator.

I have no idea where is the config file which say that another installer is already started. If someone have an idea ? So i could restart the installer

Thanks

I’ve never seen anything like that. If get-platformio.py was successfull, the VSCode PlatformIO extension should just find the core and be happy with it, without having to install additional stuff. Try to file an issue with https://github.com/platformio/platformio-vscode-ide/issues.
