Output of komorebic check

No KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected, defaulting to C:\Users\prana

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\prana

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

"focus_follows_mouse" is now end-of-life

End-of-life features will not receive any further bug fixes or updates; they should not be used

Found C:\Users\prana.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag

[LGUG2Z]

Which command are you using to launch komorebi and the bar?

[saintkatsu]

komorebic start --bar --whkd

[LGUG2Z]

Can you share the output if you try to launch komorebi-bar.exe directly on a terminal?

@CtByte did we unintentionally introduce a backwards compatibility regression here? 🤔

[LGUG2Z]

Actually @saintkatsu from looking at the config this appears to be user error on your part. You have added a new config option incorrectly.

The workspace layer subwidget had a mandatory "enable" field: https://komorebi-bar.lgug2z.com/schema#left_widgets_items_oneOf_i4_Komorebi_workspace_layer_enable

Please make sure you share the full context when opening issues like this - ie. if you have made changes. These kinds of inaccurate bug reports unfortunately reduce confidence in the software for others.

The bar did not "disappear when you updated" - it disappeared after you changed the configuration in a way that does not conform to the published schema.

[saintkatsu]

When I uninstalled the newer version and went back to the previous version, the bar was working.

[saintkatsu]

Thank you for the help, I seemed to be checking the komorebi.json instead of komorebi.bar.json. IDK how it was working on the older version. Sorry for raising the irrelevant issue.
