Please understand, this is a new problem. I have been using PIO with great success for months. The only thing, to my knowledge, it that I upgraded to Python 3.7.x.
None of my projects have worked since. I have rolled everything that I can think of back.
- the user you are executing the IDE with has sufficient rights to that folder, i.e. right-click on the project folder -> Properties -> Security -> click on your User -> Edit -> Give all rights
- you might want to delete
.piolibdepsand see what happens.- you maybe want to re-initilaize the project using
pio initin the project’s directory.
I re-checked and admin and myself all have full rights.(As far as I can tell)
I deleted ‘.piolibdeps’ without any change to the problem
But,
Something interesting…
When I tried to run pio inti in the project directory I got the following error. I don’t know if it means anything…
