oh-my-posh doesn't load / profile not loaded correctly

[erbkaiser]

Details

If the Documents folder is in OneDrive, the CTT profile is not able to load the proper Oh-My-Posh config and returns an error. Probably also happens for Powershell 5 now (untested).

Suggested fix based on old version:

line 3 onwards

function Get-ProfileDir {
if ($PSVersionTable.PSEdition -eq "Core") {
return [Environment]::GetFolderPath("MyDocuments") + "\PowerShell"
} elseif ($PSVersionTable.PSEdition -eq "Desktop") {
return [Environment]::GetFolderPath("MyDocuments") + "\WindowsPowerShell"
} else {
Write-Error "Unsupported PowerShell edition: $($PSVersionTable.PSEdition)"
return $null
}
}
$profileDir = Get-ProfileDir
oh-my-posh init pwsh --config $profileDir\cobalt2.omp.json | Invoke-Expression

Windows Powershell is not supported, you will need to use pwsh + windows terminal to use this powershell profile

Powershell 7 is, and the error occurs there if Documents is in Onedrive.
The code snippet from the previous version caught that.

You don't understand the problem so let me rephrase.

oh-my-posh init pwsh --config $Home\Documents\PowerShell\cobalt2.omp.json | Invoke-Expression
does not work and results in the following error:

PowerShell 7.6.1
Use 'Show-Help' to list all available functions
Loading personal and system profiles took 825ms.

This is because *$Home\Documents* goes to C:\Users\me\Documents, which does not exist.
I use OneDrive, so my Documents folder is actually C:\Users\me\Onedrive\Documents

If I change the oh-my-posh loader to oh-my-posh init pwsh --config $Home\Onedrive\Documents\PowerShell\cobalt2.omp.json | Invoke-Expression it works, but that is of course not working for non-Onedrive users.

And yes, docs properly goes to C:\Users\me\Onedrive\Documents
