Thank you.

What is the additional board URL that you have added?

I do not know how long you have been trying, maybe it's a temporary glitch somewhere.

Is this the url you are using?

Ja, es ist genau diese Url. Esp32 hat sofort funktioniert, die esp8266 aich bei mehrmaligen versuchen nicht

Yes, it is exactly this url. Esp32 worked immediately, the esp8266 did not after several attempt

grüsse Jürgen

Ja, das ist möglich. Ich werde es auf alle Fälle weiter versuchen. Gibt es daneben eine andere Möglichkeit die URL in der IDE einzutragen

Yes, that is possible. I will definitely keep trying. Is there another way to enter the URL in the IDE?

Now that I have deleted the entire Arduino IDE, including all associated folders, after reinstalling version 1.8.19 the integration of the esp8266 has also worked. Why now, no idea.

Greetings Jürgen
