[ClementCallendret]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
Mobioos is unable to start.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Change your VScode workspace by adding --user-data-dir D:\VScodeWorkspace to your vsCode shortcut
2. Start VScode with this shortcut (It's reset)
3. Install mobioos and all the extensions needed
4. Click on mobioos tab, and nothing happens when you press the 4 buttons.
5. When you want to refresh it, you get an error "Error running command mobioos-forge.variabilityModel.init: command 'mobioos-forge.variabilityModel.init' not found. This is likely caused by the extension that contributes mobioos-forge.variabilityModel.init."

Edit :
I removed VScode + delete code Appdata + delete .mobioosforge file
I reinstalled VScode with default workspace and reinstall extensions
Mobioos still doesn't work with the same error when clicking on refresh

Please follow the steps below to remove and reinstall the Mobioos Forge extension in VSCode:

• Remove the Mobioos Forge extension from your VSCode.
• Delete the "mobioos.mobioos-forge-2.2.2" folder located inside "YourHome/.vscode/extensions".
• Reinstall Mobioos Forge.

I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any further questions.

Thanks for your help !
But it still doesn't work.
Btw it didn't seems like it was really uninstall after uninstall it with VScode. (Installation was way too fast)
I delete .mobioos file in "YourHome" to see what happens, but im still stuck
Any idea ?
In my opinion there is some file created by Mobioos somewhere that i didn't delete. But i already search in home, appdata and in VScode data too. And i can't find it.

Thank you for the clear description. I successfully managed to reproduce the issue.
It seems that changing the user data directory breaks the credentials stored by vscode (see issues #130893 and #179202 from the vscode repo) preventing Forge to start-up properly.
To fix this issue, follow the those steps:

1. Close all your instances of vscode.
2. Delete all the credentials locally stored by vscode by running the following PowerShell one-liner (given by the vscode team here) : cmdkey /list | Select-String -Pattern "LegacyGeneric:target=(vscode.+)" | ForEach-Object { cmdkey.exe /delete $_.Matches.Groups[1].Value }
3. Re-open your forge project in vscode and log yourself.

Hope this fixed your issue!
