Just installed the Arduino IDE 2.3.2 on a newly installed system and get this. [image] Any Ideas? Stuart

Welcome to the forum Which board have you got selected in the IDE ?

It's a nologo esp32 c3 supermini. I have since discovered that if i use the MakerGO ESP C3 Supermini, I dont have this problem. I have changed the board selected and it is now fine.i bought the board on aliexpress,so i have no idea of the branding of the actual device.

I think that below is the explanation. If you analyse the boards.txt on your PC (or on the web: arduino-esp32/boards.txt at master · espressif/arduino-esp32 · GitHub), you will find the following makergo_c3_supermini.name=MakerGO ESP32 C3 SuperMini ... ... makergo_c3_supermini.menu.CDCOnBoot.default=Enabled makergo_c3_supermini.menu.CDCOnBoot.default.build.cdc_on_boot=1 makergo_c3_supermini.menu.CDCOnBoot.dis_cdc=Disabled makergo_c3_supermini.menu.CDCOnBoot.dis_cdc.build.cdc_on_boot=0 and Nologo ESP32C3 Super Mini ... ... nologo_esp32c3_super_mini.menu.CDCOnBoot.default=Enabled nologo_esp32c3_super_mini.menu.CDCOnBoot.default.build.cdc_on_boot=1 nologo_esp32c3_super_mini.menu.CDCOnBoot.cdc=Enabled nologo_esp32c3_super_mini.menu.CDCOnBoot.cdc.build.cdc_on_boot=1 You can see that the Nologo board has two enabled entries and both have the same effect on the cdc_on_boot flag. Another funny below SparkFun Pro Micro - ESP32C3 ... ... sparkfun_pro_micro_esp32c3.menu.CDCOnBoot.cdc=Enabled sparkfun_pro_micro_esp32c3.menu.CDCOnBoot.cdc.build.cdc_on_boot=1 sparkfun_pro_micro_esp32c3.menu.CDCOnBoot.default=Enabled sparkfun_pro_micro_esp32c3.menu.CDCOnBoot.default.build.cdc_on_boot=0 Although there are two entries with enabled, the effect is different on the cdc_on_boot flag.
