It WORKED! Thank you so much! I’d been hunting for a solution for this for quite a while.

Thanks for letting me know, in the editor it looks fine so not sure what happened. Fixed now though!

Works like a charm. Thanks.

Needs to be 2 hyphens before the “reinstall” part of the shell command.

your blog changed the double dash to a single one, prob some auto correction plugin. Anyways in the -reinstall, there are two dashes and not only one.
