Unable to run menuConfig

[lg.lindstrom]

Hi

When running idf.py menuconfig from a IDF terminal I get a nice view with a lot of options. (see attachement)
Unfourtnatly I cant move the cursor so I am unable to configure my project. (Maybe I am misunderstanding something here)
( IDF terminal is a PowerShell )

How do I configure my project. Is there other ways to go ?

You are running the menuconfig from the terminal will not give the cursor access to it. For you to move in it use the arrow keys

If you want to use the cursor you can try our extension and use the SDK Configuration editor command for a GUI version of this menuconfig.

Ahh.. sorry,, my mistake. Running menuconfig worked fine, when starting it using vscode commands.


At least, it have been working for a long while. Now it suddenly stopped to work. It hangs on "loading initial values".
What can it be now ??


This is my doctor file:
