@BindraAgamjot256 commented on GitHub (Mar 3, 2025):

edit...

Upon running with the rust_backtrace environment variable set to full ($env:RUST_BACKTRACE="full"), the command worked perfectly...
now output:

Start-Process 'komorebi.exe' -WindowStyle hidden
Waiting for komorebi.exe to start...Started!

if (!(Get-Process whkd -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue))
{
  Start-Process whkd -WindowStyle hidden
}


Thank you for using komorebi!

.
.
.

"float_rules" is now "ignore_rules"

"focus_follows_mouse" is now end-of-life

End-of-life features will not receive any further bug fixes or updates; they should not be used

could it be some form of a race condition?
shall the issue be closed?

In the first run, the "applications.json" file was not where it was expected to be, in tbe second run, it was. This is more of an end user environment problem than a bug so this can be closed.

komorebic fetch-asc is usually the way to go if anyone ever finds themselves with a missing applications.json file.
