Nothing happens after install #72

The installation was successful but my powershell looks the same as before. Should I do anything else beside running the script?

Thanks :)

In the folder where you executed the script, there should be a 'Cove.zip' File extract it and then install it

if you read the script in setup.ps1, theres a function that dowloads cascadiacode and install it you might have to restart your terminal though

Thank you for clearing this. I have read that but there is no cove.zip in the whole machine (at least everything search could not find one) :/

I looked the zip in the right directory. Do you have any other ideas maybe what could be the cause?

Click on 'v' in the bar then go to settings then 'PowerShell' then 'Appearance' then 'Font face' then select 'CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font Mono'

-> Download Caskaydia font and install from nerdfont.com , if you dont see that font..........

Hi there @DRYN07 I had the same issue as you, not sure if you've already sorted it, but here are the steps I took to sort it:

Select Settings within the dropdown.
Select PowerShell, find the Additional settings section and select Appearance.
Change the Font face to CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font Mono or a NF Mono patched font you like (most should work), and if you fancy you can change the Color scheme. Don't forget to press Save.

Final result should be similar to:

@fdzalex Thank you for writing, to be honest, I haven't dealt with it since then. Now it has come up again to do it, I read the description, and it was quite clear that last time I got stuck with the cove.zip, even though I could have used a different font as well... :D

Hmmm a small other question. I did a clean install of this on a clean virtual machine. On the appearance, everything is fine but the powershell looks like the default one. Am I missing something? I restarted the explorer.

Might be missing oh-my-posh

Oh-My-Posh debug pwsh

See the output and post here.

Also check that your Environment for your ps1 profile is correct

$PROFILE

and lastly verify that the oh-my-posh is on path by doing

$env:PATH | grep oh-my-posh

show me what the output is and we can get this solved!!

Finally, I found the problem: the issue was caused by UniGetUI already having installed a version of Choco, just not in the default location. As a result, the script simultaneously stated, "WARNING: Choco is not installed" and "WARNING: Choco is already installed." If I leave the UniGetUI installation until the end, ensuring that Choco is already installed in the proper location, everything works fine :)

Thank you for the detailed help anyway.
