Extension throws error when starting Visual Studio about visualstudiodiscordrpc HOT 17 CLOSED

Installing the new update solved it, thanks!

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

So, the extension was updated recently and looks that the error was resolved, thank you!

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

Is this the first time you installed an extension? Or did you have it installed before and you used it, and then updated and everything broke?

it fixed itself after i reinstalled windows, i guess it was just a bug with my pc 🤷 thank you for helping

Perhaps this is due to a change in the storage location of the settings.
Can you also attach a file that is located at %LocalAppData%/VisualStudioDiscordRPC/settings.json?
I would like to make sure that everything is fine with the settings.

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

I attach mine too, thanks for the extension btw 🙂
settings.json

Edit:
Interesting, it says version 1.5.1 though I downloaded the newest from the extension store inside VS...

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

@Zagrthos I found the reason of your error.
To fix that, replace:
"StatePlug": "NoneAssetPlug",
to:
"StatePlug": "NoneTextPlug",

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

But it seems to me that @1nade has another problem.
I'm still figuring out your problem, but if this fix or upgrade to 1.6.1 helps you too, please let me know.

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

@1nade Is your error still actual after the installing 1.6.1 extension patch?

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

yeah, same error and everything

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

Attach, please, your settings file (%LocalAppData%/VisualStudioDiscordRPC/settings.json)

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

I'm having the same problem, here is my settings.json:

{
  "RichPresenceEnabled": true,
  "Language": "English",
  "LargeIconPlug": "ExtensionIconPlug",
  "SmallIconPlug": "VisualStudioVersionIconPlug",
  "DetailsPlug": "FileNameTextPlug",
  "StatePlug": "SolutionNameTextPlug",
  "TimerPlug": "FileScopeTimerPlug",
  "FirstButtonPlug": "GitRepositoryButtonPlug",
  "SecondButtonPlug": "NoneTextPlug",
  "ApplicationID": "914622396630175855",
  "UpdateTimeout": 1000,
  "Version": "1.0.0",
  "UpdateNotifications": true,
  "TranslationsPath": "Translations/"
}

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

Attach, please, your settings file (%LocalAppData%/VisualStudioDiscordRPC/settings.json)

here you go:
settings.json

from visualstudiodiscordrpc.

Strange. The file is filled with Null only.
Then I will add processing soon, in case the settings file gets corrupted.
