Dear Sirs,
in my Windows 10 computer I have Windows all-in-one toolchain & MSYS installed as well as ESP-IDF,
My problem is, I am not sure how to update the toolchain & MSYS. Today when I visited:
https://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... setup.html
I saw that a new toolchain & MSYS is released { https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp32_win32 ... 170918.zip }. Obviously this is newer that my installed version.
So what steps I have to follow in order to update my installed version to the latest released?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mike Kranidis
How to update Windows MSYS2 environment
Re: Proper way to keep me updated?
Hi Mike,
Thanks for pointing out this shortcoming in the documentation.
Probably the easiest thing you can do is to download the new full precompiled environment, and copy the "C:\msys32\home" directory from your old environment into the new one.
Alternatively for this upgrade, you can just download the new version of the toolchain from here:
http://esp-idf.readthedocs.io/en/latest ... -toolchain
then delete the old toolchain from C:\msys32\opt and unzip this new version in place of it.

Thanks a lot. To be honest I already did your first suggestion ( I copy over me "home" dir ) but I was not sure that I did the proper.ESP_Angus wrote:Hi Mike,
