If your system is Windows XP then I don't think it is possible to program ESP32 . I use LINUX for this reason .

darex120 · Answer

Windows 7

urkotrebor · Answer

On W7 it worked for me , but that was some time ago .
Search for an older version of the package for ESP32 ("4.5.1esptool.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows running.") , but I'm afraid that you will have to install on foot .
I, however, suggest you install LINUX even on a USB drive (stick) and you will not have problems with ARDUINO .

Hello So I installed older versions of ESP32 in the arduino but still the same , tell me mate what version of Linux is best and if I will have no problem installing and operating the usbasp programmer

urkotrebor · Answer

As I fought on windows for ESP32 I remember that it was not enough to run the installation ( deinstallation ) it was necessary to manually clean up because the residues messed up what previously worked .
What about Linux I use this https://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=4378 recommended it to me a buddy and it works , you can always check other versions if this one will not suit you .
In the package with Mint you have a lot of proven software including ARDUINO .

darex120 · Answer

and can it be, for example, UBUNTU

urkotrebor · Answer

Probably yes , although I've never used and don't know how the matter of installing software such as arduino .
I've been using MINTA for about three years , but I'm still using XP .
It can be said that I'm like concrete I'm not fond of change , new does not mean better .
You have to try it yourself , see what you need and what is superfluous and whether your hardware will be supported because it's a lottery .
Try , you only risk losing time .

darex120 · Answer

I use windows all the time, whether it's xp, 7 or 8, but since I have to do the circuit on esp32 I didn't expect there to be any problems.

khoam · Answer

@darex120 And why do you insist on the Arduino IDE? This is the worst possible option. Definitely better to use Visual Studio Code with the PlatformIO plugin. You will also be able to write programs using Arduino Core and Arduino libraries.

darex120 · Answer

And how about the ESP32 installation

urkotrebor · Answer

I fired up the old hardware with W7 and there is still ARDUINO , if you are interested let me know on priv then I will send my directories .
I myself am curious if this can work because the files are from 2019 .

Setting up the development environment in Polish is a disaster. When you have error messages in English, 90% of the time pasting the message into googling gives a solution.

darex120 · Answer

Well, in my case it didn't help, I got a shim for the Arduino from a colleague here and we'll see if it works.

darex120 · Answer

Hello everyone
So yes, the problem is solved, I reinstalled Windows 7, reinstalled Arduino and ESP32, I chose the lowest version that was available, and compilation and programming fine
Thank you all for your interest and help.

lopr_pol · Answer

On win7 with esp32 it helps to stop at version max 1.0.6, the new python (I think) no longer wants to go on win7.

kaczakat · Answer

I have win7, Arduino 1.8.19, ESP32 core 2.0.6, ESP tool 4.2.1. I don't remember installing python in relation to ESP32, surely it was a long time ago and rather for ESP8266, at that time it was recommended to be version 2.x, I have 2.7.16 as version 3 would not work properly. Win7 updated as much as possible, ESP32 examples compile with no problem.

darex120 · Answer

So after installing version 2.0.7 programs but after uploading the program the ESP32 immediately resets and nothing happens, after pressing the boot button on the board it gets communication again

Added after 45 [minutes]:

The only program that doesn't reset my ESP32 is GetChipID shows me the esp32 id

Added after 39 [minutes]:

I've been reading and reading , and I would like to install ESP-IDF but unfortunately I can't find it for a later version than windows 10 or is there any other development environment besides Linux

kaczakat · Answer

I have not encountered a case where some programs work OK after compiling and uploading and others work badly, at least in a working board. As it resets with a program using WIFI it is usually the power supply that is to blame. It also happened to me that at high upload speeds something would crash, but there was an immediate message that the upload "didn't go".
I also had one ESP board with a connector to the battery, for chrissakes it wouldn't work until I plugged some in there, as if they had saved a couple of capacitors on this occasion.

darex120 · Answer

At the moment I am using the USB cable from my computer and the power supply is definitely 5V.

urkotrebor · Answer

Not necessarily , with long or poor quality cables the voltage drops are significant . If in addition the connection is not direct to the board then there are additional voltage drops .

darex120 · Answer

The cable is only 20 cm long.

sq3dwe · Answer

Same for me, Arduino IDE 2.0.3 Windows 7 purchased ESP32-WROOM-32 board selected in program is ESP32-WROOM-DA Module, and message: ESP32-WROOM-32\VFO_CTRL_V8\VFO_CTRL_V8.ino:78:10: fatal error: graph.h: No such file or directory
78 | #include "graph.h". Please help for a week I have been looking for a way to program it.

MikeC · Answer

. Just out of curiosity there is already ESP32 Arduino Core 3.x on PlatformIO , with me after installation still the old version 2.x ??

khoam · Answer

. It probably won't be released so soon (Espressif has dropped support for Arduino on PIO), but there is an alternative (a fork from the Tasmota developers):
