Hi all, I have installed ros2 foxy on my windows 10 machine. I was able to run example nodes in the tutorial initially but now its indefinitely waiting after the run command is issued.

I followed the instructions mentioned here to install ros2.

I tried removing ros2 using "rmdir /s /q C:\opt\" command and reinstalling according to the above mentioned steps but it didn't help. I also checked reinstalling Visual studio 2019.

How can i bring the ros module to working condition? Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.

Hi @Sid7117 what instructions did you use for installation? This may help me understand what to recommend to remove ROS2

In that case this should do it:

rmdir /s /q c:\opt

I tried this. Still the issue is there after reinstall. I could source the ros module and build a package using colcon build. But it wont execute a node if i try to run. It just waits indefinitely.

Have you tried reinstalling VS2019 as well?

Also make sure to do:

set ChocolateyInstall=c:\opt\chocolatey
choco upgrade all -y --execution-timeout=0

Please document what you have already tried and edit your question. Otherwise you are having answerers guessing and it’s unproductive

Uninstalled everything mentioned in this previous installation of ROS2 https://docs.ros.org/en/foxy/Installa...

OpenCV, OpenSSL,DDS,Edited the Path variable to remove there added paths.

Installed ROS2 on windows using below guide

http://wiki.ros.org/Installation/Windows

Then ros2 node started working. Finally.
