Botframework-emulator: Where is the emulator installed?

[targetnull]

I'm using the latest release version 3.5.27, the emulator works fine in the first run, but I can't find anything like a shortcur on my desktop or in the start menu. So I have to click the installer every time I want to run the emulator, and that is slow. Where is the emulator installed on my Windows 10, can I use a shortcut? Thanks.

Hi @targetnull This is a regression in the latest build. We're prepping a recovery build and will have a patch out soon.

Happened to me too, but it is located in:

C:\Users\Mohamed\AppData\Local\botframework\app-3.5.27

I right clicked on botframework-emulator.exe and add it to start menu, for now.

I tried that and when I ran the emulator I got:

write EPROTO 101057795:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol:c:\jenkins\workspace\electron-win-x64\vendor\node\deps\openssl\openssl\ssl\s23_clnt.c:794:

I've been giving this thing a good college try but it no work... Pointing to c:\jenkins... huh? :)

@LlewellynJones Pay no mind to that file path. It's just debugging information encoded into the Electron binary at the time it was built.

Your error message suggests you are able to launch the emulator, but are getting this error when trying to send your bot a message. Is this what you're experiencing?

Okay, I see what I was doing, connecting to https://... not http://... and
my app didn't have ssl enabled. I'm okay with running it from the appdata
folder for now.

Cheers,
