My question:
Issues:

  • installed latest desktop agent (from postman website)
  • unzipped and ran ‘Postman Agent’
  • Chrome not detecting the agent as started up

Details (like screenshots):

How I found the problem:
For some reason postman stopped working as above, so I thought it might just be out of date, but updating did not work as seen above.

I’ve already tried:

  • deleting ~/.postman
  • deleting shortcut to postman and all old installations
  • downloading latest
  • running latest.
