WiFi-Kit-32 Programming no longer works

#1

Hi
I have used sever of These kits and all went well so far.
But now, after several Updates of Windows and Arduino (Windows 10 newset, Arduino 1.8.9, ESP32 1.02), I can still download, but the module crashes with the following info:

Have you tried doign a full erase on the chip?
I am no expert but since no one has answered this give that a go and see if it sorts it out.

You may also want to try this out.

Ok after I discovered that all still works on another PC I reinstalled the Heltec Software and now all is OK again. Hmmm. Somtimes….
Sorry for disturbing you.
