Hello, I am having an issue with Arduino,
I updated to 1.8.13 and now when I try to upload a sketch to my board (Sparkfun ESP32 Thing plus ) I get the following error:
Arduino: 1.8.13 (Windows 10), Board: "SparkFun ESP32 Thing Plus, 80MHz, Default (6.25MB APP/ OTA/ 3.43MB SPIFFS), 921600, Verbose"
Sketch uses 209651 bytes (3%) of program storage space. Maximum is 6553600 bytes.
Global variables use 15348 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 312332 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

An error occurred while uploading the sketch
I have tried the following:
- uninstalling and reinstalling arduino
- deleting the libraries and program files dir and readding the board
- rolling back to 1.8.12
- sending the Blink test sketch from examples
all with no luck here.
can anyone point me in a direction to resolve this?
