Yes, it gives issues when we install esp-idf directly from VS code and I also faced the same issue. You can install esp-idf from the installer and then integrate it with esp-idf. I follow this guide: https://esp32tutorials.com/install-esp3 ... e-vs-code/ and it worked for me.

I've installed ESP-IDF using the installer and using VS Code Extention to build a project still getting - ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'kconfiglib' for V5.0.1.

Hi Surjeet,

I will need more information in order to be able to help you. As explained in the IDEs FAQ post, please try to troubleshoot the issue using our Troubleshooting Guide
If you can't figure it out, in order for us to be able to help you, we will need the output from the Doctor Command, you can just paste it in here.

Thanks!
