I have reinstalled the extension but nothing seems to work...

[anseki]

Hi @svictoreq, thank you for the comment.

It seems that the installation failed. And cache data in your computer might be broken. You can clear the cache data by this:

1. Uninstall the extension.
2. Command to remove NPM cache data.
   npm cache clean
3. Command to confirm the cache data were cleared.
   npm cache ls
4. Remove Electron cache data in:
   "%USERPROFILE%\.electron" (Windows)
   ~/.electron (others)
5. Re-install the extension.

I did what you told me to do, and it's 4 hours now, and still "setting up the extension". Is that normal?

[anseki]

Maybe your network line has problem. For example, you might be in China. See: Manual installation NPM modules

[svictoreq]

I am trying that but it doesn't install. I'm in the anseki.vscode-color-0.4.1 directory and using npm install. My system is 64-bits. Does that matter? I'm in Venezuela...

[anseki]

Please details. What happened by npm install? E.g. an error message was shown?

[svictoreq]

No error was displayed, I think it was the internet connection... I tried the npm install command again and it worked... The extension was invisible, but I changed the "colorHelper.disableTransparent" to true and it's working perfect right now. Thanks, great support!
