Hello.

If you installed ESP-IDF via VSCode plugin and want to use it from a normal CMD window, you will need to export environment variables first. You need to change directory to the IDF installation folder and run export.bat file, then idf.py will be available for your current terminal session. You can find more info in the links below.

yes.
I did what you mentioned and idf.py build works well now.
I got errors when build:
1. cc1.exe error: too many filename given; solved by: idf.py --no-ccache build
2. failed: hello_world.elf can't find solution; tried blink got same error, mean that the error not from project folders?

Code: Select all

/../../../../xtensa-esp-elf/bin/ld.exe what this mean?

I have long path name enabled.
