This error is appearing for me, when I just added my computer.

@Tiago-Ivanov-Lavinas, the agent is supposed to copy the default configuration files including home_assistant_config.json to your data folder: C:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData

You could write the file yourself. These are the default contents.

{
    "HA_URL": "ws://homeassistant.local:8123/api/websocket",
    "HA_TOKEN": "Put your home assistant token here",
    "HA_ENABLED": false
}

I just installed the same version of the agent on my Windows 11 computer that didn't have the agent before, and it worked for me, so I suspect your antivirus software might have blocked the agent from writing the file. I'm not sure.

@Russ Yes, I created that file and it worked. Thank you.

@Russ I have another problem. When I try to create my command, it doesn't update on the website or in the "commands.json" file. It only appears on the website when I edit the file itself. The same thing happens when I delete the command in the application but it doesn't delete it in the "commands.json" file or on the website.
Another problem I'm facing is when I click on "Search for Examples", a window opens saying "Loading examples" and it doesn't load.

@Tiago-Ivanov-Lavinas Also, when I turn on my computer, it asks me to enter the token again, meaning I have to delete my computer on the website and create another one to enter the application.

@Tiago-Ivanov-Lavinas, this is strange behavior. It seems like the TRIGGERcmd Agent application doesn't have read/write access to your data folder (c:\Users\(your user)\.TRIGGERcmdData). You could check the permissions on that folder, and give Everyone full control. If it's not a file permissions problem, maybe your antivirus software is blocking access to those files.

What antivirus software are you using? I have heard of problems with Avast blocking the agent.

Tiago Ivanov Lavinas

@Russ The antivirus I use is Windows' own.

Russ

@Tiago-Ivanov-Lavinas, if it's the windows built-in, that's not the problem. You could try renaming the .TRIGGERcmdData folder and re-running the agent. The agent should recreate the folder, and populate it with the default files, like the agent was supposed to when you installed it originally. Sorry about this. I've never seen this issue before and I don't know how to reproduce it.

Tiago Ivanov Lavinas

@Russ I managed to solve hahahahahha. I just rename the folder and it worked! Thank you very much.

Russ

@Tiago-Ivanov-Lavinas, great. Not sure what happened the first time, but renaming that folder is like a fresh agent install.
