Can't install on Windows 10

#1 Post by joebif1 » 30 Jul 2020, 06:09

Sorry to ask such a dumb question but I have downloaded esp easy mega and every time I try to install it nothing happens. I am the administrator on all my pcs. I tried it on 7 and 10 both are pro. What do I need to do? On 10 I saw the command window open and close real fast and nothing. This is weird.

Thanks in advance

Be sure to use "FlashESP8266.exe" and not "esptool.exe" as this is a command-line tool.

Okay Flashesp8266 runs. How do I use the esptool.exe in command line mode?

You find the documentation here: https://github.com/igrr/esptool-ck or use esptool.exe -h
No need to install Python.
