Two projects_dir in settings get

[cool_javelin]

Hello:

Recently I changed the directory structure for my PIO projects, so I wanted to change the default projects dir in PlatformIO.

I opened a terminal (in platformIO) and typed the command…

pio settings set projects_dir /home/mark/Documents/1_Programming/1_PlatformIO

This returned with…

Name          Current value [Default]                          Description

---

projects_dir  /home/mark/Documents/1_Programming/1_PlatformIO  Default location for PlatformIO projects (PlatformIO Home)
              [/home/mark/Documents/PlatformIO/Projects]

The bottom location is in yellow.

The second part “/home/mark/Documents/PlatformIO/Projects“ shouldn’t exist.

What is going on here, and how do I fix it?

Thanks, Mark.

PS. I don’t know what is going on with the forum changing the colors in the code here, but in reality, all of the response is in black and white except the afore mentioned yellow part.

What’s the exact problem / what does not work for you?
Or is it just about a path name that should not exist?

The color information is not copied when you paste text here.
The forum has it’s own formatting / color style for preformatted text.

Sounds like Include search path redundency platformio.ini and vscode settings include path can be marked as solved?
