Originally created by @psi00 on GitHub (Feb 16, 2024).

Describe the bug
Whenever attempting to enable Komorebi's autostart through komorebic enable-autostart and providing the needed config file (--config C:\Users\James\komorebi.json is mine), Komorebi throws an error saying that the 'program was not found' and shows what seems to be a directory.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open Powershell or equivalent terminal
  2. Run komorebic enable-autostart and provide your config file directory
  3. Komorebi throws an error

Expected behavior
I expected Komorebi to enable itself to auto-start upon receiving said command.

Operating System

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
OS Version:                10.0.22631 N/A Build 22631

komorebic check Output

KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: C:\Users\James\.config\komorebi

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\James\.config\komorebi

No komorebi configuration found in C:\Users\James\.config\komorebi

If running 'komorebic start --await-configuration', you will manually have to call the following command to begin tiling: komorebic complete-configuration

Additional context
I also tried the command with C:\Users\James\.config\komorebi\komorebi.generated.ps1 incase I had the wrong file, but that created the same result.

Looks like you may be running an older version of komorebi here. Can you check both binaries with the --version flag?

0.1.21 is now available both on WinGet and Scoop so if you're on a version earlier than that on either of the binaries this should be fixed with a quick upgrade to the latest version!

Hello, thanks for the quick reply! Komorebi was on version 0.1.19 beforehand. After updating to 0.1.21, the same issue is still arising. Perhaps the location may be something to do with it? But I don't know, I'm not the guy who wrote the program lol.

It looks like the program that can't be found here is "powershell.exe" 🤔

Are you able to run "powershell" successfully as a command from a plain old Command Prompt? 👀

Bingo!
C:\Users\James>powershell

'powershell' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

This is a little beyond the scope of the software as it's a system environment configuration issue, but you should be able to ensure that the PowerShell binary is available on your system PATH by following these instructions: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamkb/powershell-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command-1095246216.html#:~:text=Search%20for%20%22environment%20variables%22%20in,folder%20where%20PowerShell%20is%20located.

The above didn't work for me - however, setting the path to %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0> did work. Now Komorebi autostarts with no issues when I boot up the system. Thanks for your help! :)
