Unable to connect to simulator.

204977195c1242d39c6e8e86ae189485 over 4 years ago

Greetings
My environment is:
- Win 11
- Visual studio code 1.70.2
- Icq 1.0.5
- SDK 4.1.5
I wrote various widgets and apps (all OK), suddenly when writing a new widget, the simulator tells me "unable to connect", I reinstalled the whole environment, but nothing to do. I don't understand what happened as I apparently didn't make any changes to the environment. Looking on the internet I couldn't find any solution that solved the problem. Is there someone who can help me ?
THANK YOU

I had the same issue and an anti-virus software was the cause of the issue, in my case.

I have Avira free anti-virus and the software blocked to launch shell.exe in connect IQ sdk, which resulted in the issue.

It may be worth trying to check your anti-virus log, whcther it blocked essential program to launch simulator.

o don't know what I can do... I already open the simulator for the root manual, like

/Users/me/Library/Application\ Support/Garmin/ConnectIQ/Sdks/connectiq-sdk-mac-4.1.5-2022-08-03-6e17bf167/bin/ConnectIQ.app and nothing...

already tried with macOS-GateKeeper-Helper-master to disable the "security" on this simulator and nothing...

firewall is off

How about trying below?

1. Delete SDK 4.1.5

2. Kill all function of firewall and anti-virus software

3. Re-install SDK 4.1.5

4. Use SDK 4.1.5 as target version

5. Launch the simulator

In my case, anti-virus software deleted shell.exe from the SDK folder, which resulted in the “not connected to simulator” error even after killing anti-virus functions. Re-installing the target version of SDK may help you.

Hello.

I already tried to uninstall everything and install again, but it's wrong anyway...

I don't have anti virus, and my firewall is off.

I'm on MacOS Monterey 12.3.1
