I get this error anytime I run a command, it starts normal but when I run komorebi status for example. I get the error. Please help

Did you started komorebi earlier via komorebic start?

This happens from time to time when using the komorebic wrapper to start the komorebi process from Powershell. When it happens to me, I do one of the following:

Spawn a new Powershell process and try running komorebic start there, though this still may fail
Try running komorebic start from a cmd terminal; I've never had this fail
Run the underlying Powershell command directly in Powershell: Start-Process komorebi.exe -WindowStyle hidden

I don't know enough about calling Powershell from Rust to know why this failure occurs sometimes, but I'm happy to keep this ticket open as a bug for someone who is interested enough to look into it.

Hey, I just wanted to say that the same thing happened to me and the workarounds offered here did not help, the best results I managed to get were by changing the code komorebic start is running to:

const CREATE_NO_WINDOW: u32 = 0x08000000;
use std::os::windows::process::CommandExt;
let _child = std::process::Command::new("cmd")
		    .args(["/c", "komorebi.exe"])
                    .creation_flags(CREATE_NO_WINDOW)
                    .spawn().expect("failed to spawn komorebi");

and adding:

#![windows_subsystem = "windows"]

to the top of komorebics main.rs

there's some more testing to be done to be more sure but this is more promising than anything else I've tried,
I don't know much about windows' api but this feels like a much more native/stable way to start komorebi than with powershell (although I wasn't able to get rid of the cmd part of the command).

I'll report back after more testing.
