Hydrogen: Failed to activate hydrogen after installation error (hydrogen 2.10.2)

[Tbosa]

Description:

Since I installed the last hydrogen version 2.10.2, I can't run any python code.
Furthermore, I did not get this error using previous hydrogen version 2.10.0.

To be complete, I think I did a mistake while installing hydrogen 2.10.2 because it raised me an error during the installation and I just overlooked it and then restarted atom.
This installation failure might be the same than the one described there #1689

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open .py file
2. Ctrl+enter to run any line code

Versions:

OS Version : Microsoft Windows 10.0.17134.829

Atom : 1.38.2
Electron : 2.0.18
Chrome : 61.0.3163.100
Node : 8.9.3

hydrogen version : 2.10.2

Plugins:

Do you have any Hydrogen plugins installed and active?

• [X] hydrogen-python 0.0.8
• [ ] Hydrogen Launcher
• [ ] Data Explorer

Logs:

Failed to activate the Hydrogen package

Hi, did you try to re-install Hydrogen ?
If not, please do so.

[Tbosa]

First I tried to uninstall it using apm command in CLI : apm uninstall hydrogen

__Output__:
Uninstalling hydrogen failed
Failed to delete hydrogen: EPERM: operation not permitted, unlink 'C:\Users\barbo\.atom\packages\hydrogen\node_modules\zeromq\build\Release\zmq.node'

[aviatesk]

Not sure why this kind of permission prob happens here, but you can manually delete the whole Hydrogen directory in .atom/packages and then run apm install hydrogen

[Tbosa]

It works. Thank you for your time @aviatesk

@mechloz If you are experiencing,

EPERM: operation not permitted, unlink 'C:\Users\barbo.atom\packages\hydrogen\node_modules\zeromq\build\Release\zmq.node

Then you have some program using or holding this resource, most commonly disabling antivirus solves this, but this could be caused by other instances of atom. Try closing all programs plus antivirus to uninstall. If you are facing the first issue there is a problem with your connectivity or your atom downloading that dependency
