🔧 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

VS Code Not Found

# Ensure VS Code is installed and has been run at least once
# Check installation paths manually

Permission Denied

# Linux/macOS: Ensure appropriate file permissions
chmod +x install

# Windows: Set execution policy or run as Administrator
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
# Or run with bypass: powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install.ps1

Dependencies Missing

# Windows: Dependencies auto-install via Chocolatey
# Manual installation if needed:
choco install sqlite curl jq

# Linux: Install via package manager
sudo apt install sqlite3 curl jq          # Ubuntu/Debian
sudo dnf install sqlite curl jq           # Fedora
sudo pacman -S sqlite curl jq             # Arch

# macOS: Install via Homebrew
brew install sqlite3 curl jq

PowerShell Execution Policy (Windows)

# If remote execution fails, try:
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

# Or use bypass for one-time execution:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IIXINGCHEN/augment-vips/main/install.ps1 | iex"

Trial Account Issues

# If you see "trial account limit exceeded" errors:
.\install.ps1 -Operation clean -Verbose

# This will clean trial-related data from VS Code databases
