why my code is showing "boot button is not pressed" in smowcode while coding ESP32

Question

The logic was correct and there were no problems or warnings when I uploaded the code but it wasn't compiled. I also followed the instructions and clicked the boot button while uploading it was displaying "upload failed" I tried but the code wasn't uploaded to ESP32.

Answer 1

You should check if esptool.exe is accessible via your command prompt.

Steps to check that:

1. Press "win + R"
2. Write "cmd" and click ok.
3. Write "esptool" and click enter.
4. If you don't see anything, then go to start bar and type "env" to open environment variables settings.
5. In current/all users, find path named variable and edit it.
6. Add a new path pointing to "C:/smowcode/p" folder or the p folder inside your installation directory of Smowcode.
