Trouble running multiple idf versions

[orbitcoms]

Hi,

I have been struggling most of the day trying to solve this. Hopefully someone can help here.
My machine is running lastest verison of Windows 11 and vscode.

I managed to install version 5.1.1 ok. for my new ESP32 S3 projects.

Having some trouble with us delay in the version 5 ets_sys module and also the rmt syntax so I need to revert to version 4.x idf.

I opened the "Configure ESP-IDF Extension"
Then selected "Express" (I also tried advanced and use existing setup) and I tried saving to Global and also Workspace folder.

In each case I selected the version 4.4.6 and selected a new folder for esp-idf and tool.
Clicked install and all the files downloaded and appeared to install ok.

All the pre-requisites look fine and ticked. idf-Python is version 3.11.2

But, at the very end instread of getting indication of successful configuration, It just shows the config page with button to "Install" again.

This is what I get at end of config: I ran the pip install as suggested but did not fix the issue.

Hi,

This has been solved in the last PR of vscode extension, however, it's not released yet.

You can install the version in which this is fixed by using this .vsix file https://nightly.link/espressif/vscode-e ... 521762.zip and following these steps:

Open Visual Studio Code.
Go to Extensions:
Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+X (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+X (macOS).
Alternatively, you can click on the Extensions icon in the Activity Bar on the side of the window.
Install from VSIX:
In the Extensions view, click on the More button (...) in the top menu.
Select Install from VSIX... from the dropdown menu.
Navigate to the .vsix file and select it.
Click the Install button in the dialog that appears to confirm.

I downloaded the updated installer but when attempting to install version 4.4.6 released I get error attached

Can you please run the Doctor Command from Command Palette and give me the output? I would like to take a look at the configuration. After running the command it will be copied to clipboard and you can paste it in a .txt file
