Title: Handling Unexpected Scoop Uninstallation Date: 2024-09-12 Tags: Error Resolution, Scoop Recently, my Scoop installation disappeared, likely due to an issue with UniGetUI. After reinstalling Scoop, the environment variables did not restore, but the folder C:\Users\Username\scoop remained intact, indicating that the software files and persistent data were not lost. I found a solution on a GitHub issue: 1. Navigate to the apps directory: `cd C:\Users\Username\scoop\apps` 2. Run the command: `scoop reset *` After following these steps, I successfully restored most software environments, although some already open applications did not recover. They can be manually restored using `scoop reset SoftwareName`.

Recently, I found that Scoop mysteriously disappeared from my computer. I suspect it might be an issue with UniGetUI. In any case, my Scoop was uninstalled, and the environment variables for the software installed via Scoop became invalid, which made my coding environment unusable. After reinstalling Scoop, the environment variables did not restore, but I noticed that the path C:\Users\Username\scoop was not lost, indicating that the software files and persistent data should not be missing. After searching for some information, I found a solution in a GitHub Issue. If you encounter the same problem, you can try the following steps to resolve it:

cd C:\Users\Username\scoop\apps
scoop reset *

After reinstalling Scoop and performing this operation, I successfully restored the environment for most of the corresponding software, except for some software that I had already opened, which did not restore. However, I can manually use scoop reset software_name to restore them individually later.
