SDK Manager error

Hi,

Since the SDK 4 was released, I was having issues making my watch faces work on the Venu 2 using the new SDK. I got past the createBuffer part with the help of the SDK announcement thread, but after that was solved, I was still getting errors like setColor not being recognized, which was very weird. So I decided to start using VSCode to see if it would make any difference to those weird errors.

So first I tried leaving Eclipse installed and go about the process of getting VSCode set up. I made a copy of my Eclipse project to another folder and was able to open this as a VSCode project. I installed the plugins, configured the MonkeyC settings and ran the simulator, apparently with no issues whatsoever. However, I started to make changes to my code and they were not showing up on the simulator, like the simulator was still running Eclipse's version of my code. Then I decided to create a new watch face project from scratch in VSCode and when I ran it, it was still running my old project from Eclipse somehow? It's like the data from VSCode was not being sent to the simulator and it was still running whatever it had in cache/memory from Eclipse.

Then, my next try was deleting Eclipse (including * ~/eclipse, * ~/.eclipse and * ~/.p2) and the SDK manager (including Garmin folder in AppData/Roaming where the SDK and devices are downloaded to) completely, to start everything from scratch. Sadly none of those have uninstalls in "add or remove programs", so I deleted them manually, all the folders that I could find. I downloaded the SDK files from Garmin again (just in case they've been updated) and extracted the files from the zip to a different folder location.

The problem is that now my new SDK manager installation is not opening at all. I can go through the whole login, terms and automatic/manual update set up, but after that, the below pop-up error is being presented on the SDK download screen:

If I click the Yes button, it closes the SDK manager. If I click No or Cancel, then it's as if the SDK manager was not communicating to VSCode again and I'm still not able to send data to the simulator. I think my SDK manager might have been with some kind of problem for a while and that is making VSCode not communicate correctly with it.

How can I completely remove SDK manager from my computer to really start from scratch and get rid of this error? Is there some kind of registry entry that also needs to be removed?

Thanks!
