Just to repeat and add to Steve's comment and what others have said. Can you try disabling antivirus? The last error you reported indicated that the installer couldn't find xcopy. Maybe antivirus is blocking it, or perhaps a Windows path problem?

Hello LeighM
Without antivirus software this time.
Copying C:\Users\uwe\AppData\Local\Temp\is-05PVS.tmp\.
the path is created but the directory is empty.
the Ortner esp-idf-v4.1.2 is not there.
something is wrong here or?

More things that might help us collectively solve this problem:

Please open a command prompt in Windows (e.g. right-click start menu, select "run", then type "cmd", then click "OK"). Then at the prompt, please type "xcopy" and press enter. You should see the message "Invalid number of parameters".

Also at the command prompt, please type "path" and press enter. This will display your current PATH system variable. Please share that here as it may help.

Thanks. LeighM was correct - there is a problem with your PATH.

Xcopy.exe is located under "C:\Windows\system32\", so that needs to also be in your PATH. You can edit PATH in Windows Settings in "Edit the system environment variables".

There may be some more PATH entries missing which are important for the ESP32 toolchain.

Hello Steve-Matrix

what i don't understand, aren't the paths created by the installation?

Which paths do I have to enter?

greetings
SpeedPic32

An installer sometimes adds to PATH.
Looks like your defaults have been deleted at some point.

As Steve said

Xcopy.exe is located under "C:\Windows\system32\", so that needs to also be in your PATH

Hello LeighM

The installation has now worked.
Now I have the old problem again....

Greetings SpeedPic32

Do you get the same error when compiling a blank (i.e. new) project? If not, please post the full list of messages from the compiler and also your project.
