Failed to compile can't find .py files

Hi I’m running into this error when I try to compile a platformio project

@gordonswanson

a platformio project

Is it some special project? What’s the platformio.ini? Or does this occur with the simplest Arduino Uno blink sketches as well?

Hallo, I got exactly the same error while compiling the 3d Printer Software marlin with the integrated ESP3d feature activated for an ESPWROOM32. Without that feature the code compiles without errors!

!

[maxgerhardt]

Do you have Git installed globally on your computer and restarted VSCode? The linked repository GitHub - luc-github/ESP3DLib: ESP3D library for Marlin and ESP32 boards exists so that part shouldn’t be a problem.

@gordonswanson is there a line above that error message refering to some URL?

[sebif2018]

I installed Git real quick and now it works flawless!
Thank You very much.
