Are you running the latest beta? If not, you can enable beta updates via the EDDI app.

If that fails then you may have a corrupted file. Close EDDI (and VoiceAttack as applicable), then open %APPDATA%/EDDI and delete the "credentials.json" file. Restart EDDI and refill your credentials.

I've enabled the beta access and searched on the %APPDATA%/EDDI dicectory but could not find the "credentials.json" file, only the other .json files. The companion still not operational...

EDDI version 2.3.0 It seems that EDDI doesn't create the credentials.json file if it is missing. If I manually create the file and populate it with MID and MTK I can get EDDI to try and contact the api server. But with errors. What is the syntax for the file?

It looks something like this, but what is the entry for "CompanionApp": null?

{ "email": "[email protected]", "CompanionApp": null, "mid": "lotsandlotsofdigits", "mtk": "evenmoredigits" }
