please look at the report view after loading freecad and see if you have something like the following line:

18:02:31  Init:      Initializing C:\Users\shai\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\Mod\fasteners\.\... done

see if there are errors near that line. I have no control over the addon manager if indeed it a manager bug.

[Norbert-Rotorwerk]

I got the following error:

17:38:11 During initialization the error "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'setObjectName'" occurred in /home/norbert/.local/share/FreeCAD/Mod/fasteners/./InitGui.py 17:38:11 Please look into the log file for further information

But I can not find the any log file.

fasteners 0.4.55

Wait.. latest version fasteners is v0.5.29

[shaise]

@luzpaz , Again its the issue of addon manager not detecting or unable to update the version. Many times I suggested users to uninstall/install the the addon in order to get the recent version.

[shaise]

@Norbert-Rotorwerk , can you try to uninstall/install the workbench? if you don't see it in the addon manager check if the "filter" drop down at the top is set to any, any.

@shaise i'm blurry on the details of this. Did you mention this to me once? is there a ticket open for it ?

[Norbert-Rotorwerk]

I uninstalled and installed the fastener workbench. After that the workbench was loaded without any issue. From my point of view it could be an issue with the addon-manager.

[shaise]

@luzpaz , I dont know if there is a ticket. I get this issues on both sheetmetal and fasteners. However it seems no other WB report this problem, so perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I do not know if it was you or another admin I told it to, but the response was that my package.xml is correct, so I really dont know what to do about it.

@chennes have you seen/heard of this bug before ? https://github.com/shaise/FreeCAD_FastenersWB/issues/403#issuecomment-2411855137
