i have an ESP32 S by AI-THINKER, on the reverse NODEMCU ESP-32S programmed and up and running ok.
my problem is i went to add some more code to it but the library seems to have vanished, no problem just reinstalled library, (https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json) but now when i go to programme the ESP32 i check TOOLS, board = NodeMCU-32S, Upload Speed "921600", Flash Frequency "80MHZ", Port = 5 but Programmer says "No programmers available for this board" have tried other variations of the ESP32 and all say the same " No pragrammer available for this board".
have i forgotten something

No. This is the normal and expected behavior when using Arduino IDE 1.8.13 and onward. In previous IDE versions, all programmers of all installed boards platforms were shown in the Tools > Programmer menu. But this caused confusion because you can't use the programmers for one board architecture on boards of another architecture. So the IDE was changed so it only shows the programmers defined by the platform of the currently selected board. The ESP32 platform doesn't define any programmers, so none are shown.
The Tools > Programmer menu selection is only used when you do a Tools > Burn Bootloader or Sketch > Upload Using Programmer. You can't do either of those things with an ESP32 board, so it would be pointless for the platform to provide programmers. When you are doing a standard Upload, the Tools > Programmer menu selection is completely ignored, so it doesn't matter what you have selected from that menu.
thanks for that, thought i had missed something

You're welcome. I'm glad if I was able to be of assistance. Enjoy!
