oh-my-posh: Error: unknown command "pwsh" for "oh-my-posh"

What happened?

Hello, at the beginning i just want to say that i am ultra stupid and doing these things first time. So there is a huge chance that i’ve did something wrong when i was installing it. But everytime i run terminal, it just says:

Error: unknown command “pwsh” for “oh-my-posh” Run ‘oh-my-posh --help’ for usage. unknown command “pwsh” for “oh-my-posh”

I know that it is ultra easy to fix it but im just too dumb to do it. Sorry 😦

@437kasugano I double checked, when installing via Winget, it installs on that location so that’s OK. I also noticed that when the theme path can’t be resolved, we fallback to the default. That’s what you see. Referencing the themes (when installed with winget or the PowerShell module) can be done as such:
oh-my-posh init pwsh --config "$env:POSH_THEMES_PATH\atomic.omp.json" | Invoke-Expression

This one works perfectly. I can change to every theme i want. Thanks!

@437kasugano what happens when you replace the oh-my-posh line with:

oh-my-posh init pwsh --config ~\AppData\Local\Programs\oh-my-posh\themes\atomic.omp | Invoke-Expression
