ERROR: Unable to load devices: Expected a com.google.gson.JsonObject but was com.google.gson.JsonPrimitive

Hi, I have a weird problem with my Visual Studio enviorment on Windows 11.

It used to work just fine then all of a sudden i get this error when I try to build any connectIQ project in visual studio:

Here is the build syntax:

Executing task in folder FontTestDF: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath\java.exe -Xms1g -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Dapple.awt.UIElement=true -jar c:\Users\fsall\AppData\Roaming\Garmin\ConnectIQ\Sdks\connectiq-sdk-win-6.2.1-2023-06-26-124cb49c5\bin\monkeybrains.jar -o bin\FontTestDF.prg -f c:\Users\fsall\OneDrive\Garmin\Garmin Projects\Temp\FontTestDF\monkey.jungle -y c:\Users\fsall\OneDrive\Garmin\developer_key -d epix2_sim -w -l 0

It used to work without any problem. I am not sure what I did to break it. I did some fiddling around with my onedrive account settings on my PC before the problem started but I have no idea why that should break anything.

The SDK manager is installed and working, I can see all devices are downloaded and located here:

C:\Users\fsall\AppData\Roaming\Garmin\ConnectIQ\Devices

The same problem for every connectIQ project I have. I have spent hours trying to get things back to working but without luck. I hate when I mess up things that used to work.

Thank you in advance

/Fredrik

puuh, SOLVED it by removing all devices in the SDK manager and downloaded them again.
