03/30/2023, 5:21 PMHi all, has anyone run into and solved a problem with CF Builder for VSCode where the entire ColdFusion server setup page is dimmed and everything is unclickable? I was stumbling through the whole workspace/project/folder setup a couple of days ago and figured I did something wrong then. Today I uninstalled and reinstalled CFBuilder for VScode, disabled all other extensions, uninstalled/resinstalled CF2021 @update6. It shows that ACF Builder is attached with the VS Code client, but I don't know where to look for clues on how to undo whatever I did so I can add a server. I can uninstall/reinstall VSCode to see if that works, but just wondering if someone already learned the secret of this mystery. (ps - windows 10)

• Uninstall/reinstall VSCode as user = nope
• Uninstall/reinstall VSCode at system level = nope
• Uninstall system level, reinstall VScode as user, uninstall every extension = nope
• Uninstall vscode, rename ".vscode" folder under c:\users\<profilename>\ directory, reinstall VSCode, install CFBuilder extension = nope.
All in all, just plain nope. Got it working on my other computer, but this one is just D.O.A. for adding a server.

04/04/2023, 5:06 PM@Justin B - just so frustrating that it's fine on 1 computer, but on a second it's disabled - both with references to local CF2021 installs. Maybe there's a hidden profile or something somewhere that I corrupted with all my attempts on computer #2, but can't even begin to guess where beyond what I tried.
