apps no longer working

For almost 2 months now Sidekick and Crewchief were working perfectly, now they are not! They are enabled in the general settings but they are not visible in the app bar on the right side of the screen. I'm at a lost as to why they just stopped working.
 
Install only default apps and Crewchief, then start AC from steam. If Crewchief isn't available in options there should be an error in log.txt with some indication why it is not loading the app. Some "errors" are valid when app is disabled.

Your previous errors like: "ERROR: Python ERROR LOADING MODULE :sys.path.append('apps/python/Sidekick')"
This could be OS/Language related as some use of sys.path.append functions fail in certain combos.
(but this should not change over time, so it then should relate to something else)
 
no key combo, in the launcher menu, general, i thought there was a dedicated "Enable apps" option, but just enable the "UI-modules" (=apps) at the bottom

I have done exactly that, defaults + Crewchief, no go. The error is as follows:

AC is failing to add the app to the system environment, either something is wrong or the method used is not compatible with your current OS/settings combination.

I had a few user having this problem so I re-wrote my method in the app, so far that part works for most people now. Try download the app and see if it appears in selection. https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/protyres.14030/

If it not working a bigger validation (removal) of your files might help, if app is working one could change method in the py script.
 
There are different way of implementing the "sys.path.append" function, but I get you frustration when things have been working for a while, but in your case it's repetitive so there are some kind of "logic" explanation to why.
 
Well yesterday I uninstalled and reinstalled, and no difference. I think I did not go far enough for the removal as my wheel had all it's settings untouched after the install. Not sure if that could have an impact. I believe there is stuff that was left behind in appdata. I think I will start over again after making sure everything is gone first.
