Extension not working in InDesign CC 2019 on Windows 10 #13

The extension is not working in Adobe InDesign CC 2019 (14.0.3). I keep receiving the message "Script sent to Adobe InDesign", but not happens. It does not work with Adobe ExtendScritp Toolkit either.

What script are you trying? Script may be silently failing due to error. Are you trying something complex, or simple like:

alert(app.name)

Thank you for the fast answer. When I commented, I was at work. There, the extension does not work in InDesign. I have just arrived at my house. Here, the extension works. I installed both at home and at the work computer. I was trying alert("Hello, World!"); Do you have any suggestions on how I can debug it? I already uninstalled the extension many times. I uninstalled Visual Studio Code too and reinstalled. Did not work.

Could it be possible that somehow your computer is locked from running shell commands? Maybe a permission issue? The way extension works under the hood is it invokes shell command and passes the path to the file in the active viewer. So no real magic here.
