Hi guys,

I seem to be having this issue on the latest release of quasar.

It was working fine, then all of a sudden, it couldn’t open Android Studio (along with some IDE errors when opening Android Studio manually). No matter what I did, studio would not open.

I’ve just re-installed Windows on my PC, in hopes that it was just something gone wrong somewhere, but again, have an issue opening Android Studio on a fresh install of everything.

Specs::

• Windows 10 Build 1903
• Capacitor
• Pkg quasar… v1.9.13
• Pkg @quasar/app… v1.6.1

UPDATE:

Modifying open-ide and removing the double quotes from the studioPath, when running open() solved it. But that’s not ideal.

New PR will be included in “@quasar/app” v1.2.5.
