For removing dfu-util, idf-driver, idf-eclipse, riscv32-esp-elf, riscv32-esp-elf-gdb, xtensa-esp32s2-elf, xtensa-esp32s3-elf use command 'python.exe C:\Users\home\Desktop\esp-idf-3\tools\idf_tools.py uninstall'

Done! You can now compile ESP-IDF projects.
Go to the project directory and run:

  idf.py build

.

Hello.
It looks like you are using a later version of ESP-IDF than specified in the ESP32 installation instruction guide.
There are various posts about this, for example here.
Follow the guide step by step, including the paths as that, works for me.

For future reference can you embed the compiler messages in code tags, please?
I have done that for you for the above post.

Thanks I have followed the instructions and now get further. It now has problem saying invalid baud

Code: Select all

Usage: idf.py [OPTIONS] COMMAND1 [ARGS]... [COMMAND2 [ARGS]...]...
Try 'idf.py --help' for help.

Error: Invalid value for '-b' / '--baud': 'flash' is not a valid integer.

I will have a look through my settings to see if i can see anything that seems wrong. I do notice that in project options it doesnt let me select a port only saying n/a. maybe a driver issue?

I Have just tried to change comport settings after reading this post viewtopic.php?p=57#p57
under global settings but it doesnt give me options under comport just blank

Yes, that does usually mean there is a comms issue between ESP32 and PC or the correct com port is not selected within project options.
I'm glad its all sorted now.
