I am unable to roscore. It was working fine a while ago, however it is no working anymore. I have uninstalled and reinstalled ros melodic 2 times now but to no avail. this is what happens when I run roscore:

I am new to ros so I had not realized this. the problem lied within my catkin workspace. so I deleted it and made a new one. this solved the problem.

A big thank you to @MRFalcon for responding!
the issue had occurred due to a plugin that I had installed. therefore, I copied all my packages except the plugin, ran catkin_make, and then roscore. this solved it for me.
