Just curious, if your only calling taskServer once in setup(). Why make it a task? why not just a function or put that code in startup().

Fixed here: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/co ... 1f0b413ac4 (That commit already is in master, by the way, if you update esp-idf you should get the fixed code.)

i can't speak for the ESP8266_RTOS_SDK on windows, as this is a ESP32 forum. But I can say ESP-IDF menuconfig works just fine on windows.

Thank you for the response. Unfortunately, I dont have another python path. Here is mine.

I have a strange issue, that I have not encountered before with prior versions of ESP-IDF. After using the "ESP-IDF Tools Installer" it gives you a shortcut on the desktop to get things set up, and v4.1 works just fine. What I wind up doing so I do not have to run this shortcut each time is I run th...

I noticed today that ESP-IDF v4.1 is out. The getting started guide says to download the "ESP-IDF Tools Installer" here: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/v4.1/get-started/windows-setup.html#esp-idf-tools-installer Yet when you run it, it does not include v4.1, what gives ?
