Cannot create project in PROS

I’m trying to write a new robot program using PROS, but after I follow the tutorial and install the plugin in vscode, I find that I can’t create a new project, I don’t know what to do, is there a solution?

I am moving from VEXCode Pro V5 to PROS.

Now when I create the project everything works fine and the corresponding window appears, but when I fill in all the information, the project is not created.

My VScode :

I try to create a project :

But no new project is created in the explorer :
Explorer

I would like to know if this is a bug of PROS or what steps did I have a problem with, how are you guys using it.

hi @Orrero_yang i had the same problem but with a lot of test i can solved the problems.

I dont know if is a bug of PROS, but i will tell u how i solved the problem.

  1. I installed the PROS software not the extension for vscode, Installing on Windows — PROS for V5 3.8.0 documentation

  2. I follow all the steps to install the pros software, and once that finished I come back to vscode

  3. Do click in the PROS logo, and then a dialog will appear, u need to click in install all the things

  4. Finally u can create the project

But if the problem still here u can do another thing:

In vscode

  1. Go to file
    image

An create a folder.

  1. In the menu of pros, you need to click on integrated terminal.

  1. Put the next command
    image
    You will had problem but its okay

  2. go again to the menu of pros and create a project, you need to select the last folder that u created in the first step.

And will need to be enough and work

I have followed all the steps to install PROS, but it doesn’t work when I create the project.

I also ran pros make as you did, but it still doesn’t work


I don’t know why, do you have any other solution, thanks.

Having a similar issue myself. If someone has figured out a solution, that would be beneficial
Edit:: I showed my friend the same thing and it now worked. Sometimes, it feels like showing a friend fixes it :L

as the CLI is telling you, your current working directory is not a PROS project. cd into one and you should be good to go
