What issue do you have?

After upgrading Windows Joplin to version 3.1.23 I noticed the Math Mode plugin no longer worked.
To try and resolve it I removed the plugin then tried to reinstall it.
This produced an error message - see screenshot - and the plugin will not install.

Is there a way for me to get support with this? Is this the right forum? It's concerning that something that used to work has stopped, and I am having to convert some notes into links to Google drive spreadsheets as a workaround.

I can just provide some general hints, since I don't use the plugin.

  • Can you remove the folder of the error message manually and then (re)install the plugin? It could be an issue with the path separators.
  • You could ask at the plugin thread or create an issue at github directly.

Maybe also try to restart the app, or even the computer and try again to install it.

I've added what I think might be a fix for this issue, but it won't be available in the next release (it will be in the release after that)

@nickr812, actually the latest pre-release now includes the fix. Any chance you could give it a try to see if it helps?
