This guide is outdated. Now esp32 toolchain is installed with arduino and you dont have to do anything more than installing new arduin-ide.
From time to time its good to update esp32 toolchain and stack and this require few steps, or just reinstall arduino.

Re: Steps to install Arduino ESP32 support on Windows
Thanks for that update.
The latest Arduino IDE is 1.8.5 and is dated 10/07/2107.
I installed that version a few months ago.
but I would guess that you mean the Additional Boards Manager URLs: http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/packa ... index.json

Re: Steps to install Arduino ESP32 support on Windows
Yours is for esp8266, this one is for esp32:
https://github.com/espressif/arduino-es ... plate.json
When you update it on your system then you have to run get.exe and your arduino esp-idf will be updated.

Re: Steps to install Arduino ESP32 support on Windows
Ah, yes.
I did not see esp32 in the Arduino Update library, now I know why.
I was using the outdated guide as that was the only way I could see to update the Espressif compiler.
If I understand you correctly, I would place the esp32 json link into the Arduino Preferences ->Additional Boards Manager
and that would update the arduino side of things.
But I would also have to run the GET.EXE to update the actual compiler.
Is this documented somewhere ?

Re: Steps to install Arduino ESP32 support on Windows
If you dont have already installed toolchain in C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino/hardware/espressif/esp32 then you can follow this instructions:
https://github.com/espressif/arduino-es ... windows.md
In this case (usually) [ARDUINO_SKETCHBOOK_DIR] = C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino
https://github.com/espressif/arduino-es ... windows.md
In this case (usually) [ARDUINO_SKETCHBOOK_DIR] = C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino
Sketchbook Directory: Usually C:/Users/[YOUR_USER_NAME]/Documents/Arduino and is listed underneath the "Sketchbook location" in Arduino preferences.
