We released a new SDK manager that should fix this issue yesterday. After installing the new version, you will need to remove and re-install the problematic devices so that the fonts are properly installed…
You're encountering at least 2 different errors.
The first image indicates that you are trying to simulate a device (either the fenix6 or fenix6pro) that uses a font that is not available on your computer…
My solution is not ideal but it is better than nothing until there is a new version of the SDK Manager.
I copied one of the existing fonts which I believe is similar enough and renamed it.
In my case I…
It's not the SDK, it's the devices - the second tab in the SDK Manager.
And the fr935 doesn't support the 3.2 functions. It's still on a 3.1 VM.
What I'm thinking is that you had the fr935 as a target but then changed the minCIQ to 3.2.0 in the manifest, then tried to use the 935 in the sim.
You're encountering at least 2 different errors.
The first image indicates that you are trying to simulate a device (either the fenix6 or fenix6pro) that uses a font that is not available on your computer. You could look in the listed folder to see if you can find the font, but my guess is that it is not there.
I'm tinkering with SDK Manager right now and if I clear out my %AppData%\Garmin folder and download the fenix6 devices, I'm not seeing the necessary font files get downloaded. This indicates that there is some sort of problem with the device bundles that we've created. I will have to work with @Kyle to see if we can figure out what happened.
As for the second error, I'm pretty sure @jim_m_58 has hit the nail on the head.
Travis - I'm seeing the exact same issue as I try to follow along with the tutorial. Is there somewhere else I can download the appropriate fonts? or another way to build or download the device bundles?
Thanks, -Eric
Realized I should add to my message below - it works fine if I build for the Forerunner 935 but breaks when I run for the VENU, due to the missing fonts.

No, there is nothing you can do. We need to push a new SDK manager (if that hasn't already happened).
My solution is not ideal but it is better than nothing until there is a new version of the SDK Manager.
I copied one of the existing fonts which I believe is similar enough and renamed it.
In my case I want to simulate the Fenix6X Pro which is effected by the missing font FNT_FENIX6X_CDPG_ROBOTO_25B.cft.
So I copied C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Garmin\ConnectIQ\Fonts\FNT_FENIX5_ROBOTOCONDENSEDBOLD_26PX.cft to FNT_FENIX6X_CDPG_ROBOTO_25B.cft and it works.
The problem there is in the sim, you won't see how things really look on a real device, as far as spacing, etc, I wouldn't publish any apps until this is corrected.
I agree!
