Hello,

You will find most of the answers on this wiki page.

https://www.flowcode.co.uk/wikiv7/index. ... ming_Tools

Matrix EB006-00-8 - mLoader Default PIC
Matrix EB006-00-7 - mLoader Default PIC
PICkit 2 - PK2CMD
PICkit 3 - PK3CMD or MPLABX IPE
AVRisp mkII - avrc.bat

The odd one out is the following.

Microchip explorer 16 - Either use PICkit2/3 or use Bootloader programming tool

Hi Flowcode 7 crashes when I press the save icon I have tested changing programmer settings in version 6 and its OK but Flowcode 7 crashes on both my laptop and desktop computers. I notice that Flowcode is 32 bit and my windows 10 system is 63 bit.
Not much more information I can give

Hello,

The compiler options shouldn't make a difference to being able to save your project file. Where are you saving the project to? Have you tried saving to a different file/folder/HDD to ensure the file your saving to is not read only?

Is there anything else that might be unique to your system and stopping disk write access?
I notice that Flowcode is 32 bit and my windows 10 system is 63 bit.
Flowcode is a 32-bit application but will run fine on a 64-bit operating system.

What version of Flowcode 7 are you running?

I have downloaded latest version if Flowcode 7, Where do you set where you save the file as I have not changed anything its at default settings, I followed instructions that you click on save icon and enter file name. as soon as I click on save icon system crashes.

Hi,

Can you please run flowcode as administrator (left click on flowcode icon and run as administrator) then check if you can save without crashing. (just to rule out any windows permision isues)
Also try to use "save as" and choose a diferent physical drive (first choose your main then any other) and check if it crashes.

we are here to help ;)

I can save a flowchart no problem.
Its when I try and save a programmer setting under build menu I have a problem as soon as I press the icon for save it crashes, I have already tried as administrator and disabled my firewall. to no affect.

I still have problem with system crashes when I click on the save Icon on both my laptop and my desktop.
I have however found away around this it entails entering the Flowcode 7 programmer details into Flowcode 6 and saving that.
Then using RegEdit to copy the strings from Version 6 to version 7 in the registry, then when Flowcode 7 is launched the settings appear in correct place in the programmer settings
