Hello all,

After updating ESP-IDF the "make flash" command stop working for me.

$ make flash

Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance

I am extremely green on working on ESP32 in Windows but I had a similar problem. As I hunted google, I found a recipe that resolved my instance.

1. Go to where msys32 is installed. On my system it was C:\msys32.
2. Run "autorebase" script/batch file found there.
3. Reboot your Windows PC.

At this point, all worked for me.

Hello Kolban and thanks for you helpful answer.

It's OK for me at this point
