I have deleted all files under C:\Users\k123du\.rovodev and reinstalled it several times. However, no matter how I start it, the message "To resume your session, restart Rovo Dev CLI with the --restore flag" keeps popping up. ╭──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮ │ An unexpected error occurred, exiting. │ ╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯ ╭──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮ │ To resume your session, restart Rovo Dev CLI with the --restore flag.

Hi @dz and welcome to the community,

This message usually appears when Rovo Dev CLI is trying to resume a previous session that didn’t end cleanly. Even after deleting .rovodev, session data might persist. Try launching with --restore once, then exit and restart normally. If you've already tried that, consider submitting a support ticket and head over to Dev Cli community https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Rovo-for-Software-Teams-Beta/gh-p/rovo-dev-ai-agents

@Dr Valeri Colon _Connect Centric_ I have tried --restore, but it still doesn't work.I have tried all methods.

Definitely open a ticket https://support.atlassian.com/ it could be a bug and regardless we don't want you struggling alone.

I had a very similar issue yesterday and even after deleting .rovodev folder in C:\users\{username} and the C:\users\{username}\.local\share\acli folder it remained, no matter whether I used --restore or not.

The fix for me was to remove the .agent.md in the acli working folder, starting a session and then copy the .agent.md file back into the working folder and ask Rovodev to scan the file for unusual characters. Looks like I had some strange UTF-8 bytes in there, once removed I could start up without the error.

Best of luck
