Closing because the communication isn't working. You'll have to ask for help elsewhere.

[silent-night-no-trace]

[silent-night-no-trace]

[silent-night-no-trace]

ok ,i re-install ,problem solved . thanks !

[lmwenda]

I got this issue as well and this command: ls -l -- ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k doesn't work

[romkatv]

@lmwenda Follow installation instructions: https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k#installation

[lmwenda]

For me powerlevel10k is installed properly and has taken effect however but it still says its not found which is annoying.

[romkatv]

For me powerlevel10k is installed properly

This is probably not so. Please see the installation instructions and follow them very carefully. If some steps aren't clear, ask what here for help.

[lmwenda]

Alright, thank you.

[rcoundon]

I'm also seeing this, the output of running ls -l -- ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k is:

Cloning the repo fails because it's already there - i.e. a non-empty directory. However, when launching a new terminal session I get the error:

[oh-my-zsh] theme 'powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k' not found

However, things do seem to be working:

I'm using an M1 Macbook Pro, in case that's a factor

@rcoundon Please follow the installation instructions carefully.

[rcoundon]

@rcoundon Please follow the installation instructions carefully.

I believe I have.

[romkatv]

@rcoundon Please follow the installation instructions carefully.

I believe I have.

In this case please file a bug against Oh My Zsh. The error message is coming from it.

[anwarulislam]

How did I solve it?

code .zshrc

Find for this line:

source <(ng completion script)

Comment out this line and save.

[rcoundon]

@rcoundon Please follow the installation instructions carefully.

Thought I'd report back. I've just been through the process of uninstalling Oh My Zsh and reinstalling, then reapplying Powerlevel10k and it's now working correctly.

[choilive]

FWIW- also having this issue after installing powerlevel10k

[romkatv]

FWIW- also having this issue after installing powerlevel10k

Use the same resolution.

[gaillota]

My mistake was removing the last character when pasting git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

So the repo was cloned to powerlevel10 instead of powerlevel10k

It also help me. Thanks a lot.

[anantmi3]

SOLVED this issue without reinstalling.

Just follow the steps: -

1. copy your folder /powerlevel10k and paste it inside /.oh-my-zsh/themes/
2. restart your terminal
3. Start zshagain

After that it does not give the error again.

[tedtalksbits]

What's is the output of the following command?

ls -l -- ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

SOLVED apparently I didn't clone the repo (though I thought I did) Thanks a bunch

thanks this worked for me too.

[turkalpmd]

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

Perfect solution, it is work on my local

[jdkruzr]

I think it's probably worth noting that I have also encountered this problem -- I was using p10k for literally three years with no issues, and then as of last week I started getting this error message. It's literally not there anymore. Something deleted p10k from my Mac and I have no idea what.

[romkatv]

Something deleted p10k from my Mac and I have no idea what.

I can assure you that p10k didn't delete itself.

[jdkruzr]

I don't imagine it did! I do wonder if something related to the OS upgrade I did last week did something to break my home directory or somehow otherwise cleared out the contents of something related to zsh.

Why???? @romkatv

Why can't you just be polite and kind? This is not the kind of help we need. If you're going to do this, please don't help, so you only push away those who need help. Be nice not an asshole

[romkatv]

@fabriciomasiero Please refrain from discussing anything other than powerlevel10k on this forum.

[tristan-pv01]

I'm having the same issue; could this be due to installing with Homebrew? The repo cloned during installation but wasn't in the themes directory; turkalpmd's solution fixed this but perhaps the Mac installation documentation needs updating.

[romkatv]

The docs list several installation options. You need to pick one. Do not run one command from one installation option (say, oh my zsh) and another command from a different option (say, homebrew). Pick one method and stick with it. If the instructions of a chosen option contain several steps, perform all of them.

[tristan-pv01]

For your reference, I followed both Homebrew installation steps, then the oh my zsh instructions when those didn't work on their own.

[romkatv]

turkalpmd's solution fixed this

That solution is literally copy-pasted from the installation instructions.

[CasperCheuk]

i just copy packages to oh-my-zsh dir ;problem solved. like this : cp -rf /home/casper/powerlevel10k /home/casper/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes/

[zenaku07]

Clone Powerlevel10k into your Oh My Zsh custom themes directory:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

Set the theme name correctly in your ~/.zshrc:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

Save the ~/.zshrc file and restart your terminal or run source ~/.zshrc.

Now, verify that the theme is in the right directory:

ls -l $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

You should see the powerlevel10k.zsh-theme file listed in the output.

With the correct installation and theme path set in your ~/.zshrc, the warning message should disappear, and Powerlevel10k should be loaded successfully as your Zsh theme.

Once done, restart zsh with exec zsh.

This worked for me. Thanks

[jerky33]

FYI, I accidentally ran the manual install when I should have run the command for the Oh-my-zsh install and I ended up with extra lines at the end of my ~/.zshrc file. Once I removed the incorrect theme folder in ~/powerlevel10k/ and the unneeded lines from the bottom of ~/.zshrc file and ran the correct command everything worked as expected. I hope this helps someone that may have mad the same mistake I did. Regards

[OvidiuMihalcea]

I already had a functional installation of the PowerLevel10k, but I had that error. For me the issue was that the ZSH_CUSTOM vas set to a value other than $HOME. I've commented that line, and I've sourced the .zshrc file with source ~/.zshrc

[aronreisx]

Clone Powerlevel10k into your Oh My Zsh custom themes directory:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

Set the theme name correctly in your ~/.zshrc:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

Save the ~/.zshrc file and restart your terminal or run source ~/.zshrc.

Now, verify that the theme is in the right directory:

ls -l $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

You should see the powerlevel10k.zsh-theme file listed in the output.

With the correct installation and theme path set in your ~/.zshrc, the warning message should disappear, and Powerlevel10k should be loaded successfully as your Zsh theme.

Changing from "powerlevel10k" to "powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k" solved the error message showing up. The theme was working fine from the beginning though, even with ZSH stating the theme wasn't found. My environment is Ubuntu 22 on WSL2.

[romkatv]

@aronreisx Your config is probably loading powerlevel10k twice, and potentially from two different places. You can verify this by removing the line that sets ZSH_THEME and restarting zsh with exec zsh. If you still see powerlevel10k after doing this, your config was indeed loading powerlevel10k twice. Without ZSH_THEME, it is now being loaded only once. It's a very good idea to load powerlevel10k just once from a single place.

[malahmen]

Clone Powerlevel10k into your Oh My Zsh custom themes directory:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

Set the theme name correctly in your ~/.zshrc:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

Save the ~/.zshrc file and restart your terminal or run source ~/.zshrc.

Now, verify that the theme is in the right directory:

ls -l $ZSH_CUSTOM/themes/powerlevel10k

You should see the powerlevel10k.zsh-theme file listed in the output.

With the correct installation and theme path set in your ~/.zshrc, the warning message should disappear, and Powerlevel10k should be loaded successfully as your Zsh theme.

I've followed the install instructions just once. repository was properly cloned and in place. the theme was applied and showing as configured. but I had the stupid message every time. somehow my .zshrc file had ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k" and not ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k".

didn't figured out how that happened.

[jzadra]

This is happening to me as well.

[ZewenKong]

SOLVED this issue without reinstalling.

Just follow the steps: -

1. copy your folder /powerlevel10k and paste it inside /.oh-my-zsh/themes/
2. restart your terminal
3. Start zshagain

After that it does not give the error again.

Thank you :)
