BLE not working in the simulator

I have just come back to one of my data fields that uses BLE and I am not able to start scanning in the simulator, while some month ago it worked fine.

According to some posts in the forum I have realized about issues reported since SDK 4.0.6 and/or VSCode, so I have tried several previous SDK (4.0.6 and below) with no success in Eclipse (Mac).

Is BLE working in the simulator for someone at this moment? In that case, what seetings (SDK version, Eclipse/ VSC, Mac/win) are been used?

4.0.6 is old. Current production SDK is 4.1.7.

There was an issue with the BLE dongle and VS Code for a while, but on windows, Eclipse has consistently worked for me, and 4.1.7 works with VS Code. Have you tried unplugging the dongle and plugging it back in? Are you sure the name for the dongle in the sim settings hasn't changed?

I am not using the dongle but the DK, but I don't think it is relevant. I have tried unplugging, flashing again, confirming the connection port is still the same, etc, but it doesn't work.

4.1.7 is the version I am currently using and the first one I tried when coming back to this project. I went to 4.0.6 according to some info you provided during the last year on this issue.

I will try to test it in windows, just to check if it is related to mac

The 4.0.6 was probably back from when the newer 4.0.x versions had an issue. It's been working fine for me with the 4.1.x versions.

I have the dongle as well as the DK, and both are working fine.
