Title: Cant compile arduino code
Post by Loverboy7000 on Oct 2^nd, 2020 at 6:37am

Hey guys,

I tried to get my Arduino project to compile in visual studio (it works fine in the IDE), so I downloaded vMicro a few weeks ago, but it wouldn´t work. Earlier today I spent some time trying to set it up correctly (choosing the IDE location and s forth), but it still wouldn´t compile and just show errors everywhere. I don´t think it used the right compiler, or something with the location was crappity smacky. It wouldn´t recognize byte and HIGH/ LOW and simple native commands.
So I updated Visual Studio and change the language pack and now it wont let me select the IDE at all anymore.

Anyone has some ideas?
It feels like it corrupted my trial now that I updated VS.

Thanks in advance!

Can you still see the vMicro Menu under the Extensions Menu on the toolbar, and if so, are all the options greyed out like in the image on the below page?

yes, this is exactly how it looks like, but I don´t think my license expired at the exact moment I updated Visual Studio.
There has to be some issue with reading it, and it won´t let me start a new trial either.

Sounds like the trial has ended. When did you install visual.micro?

I don´t recall anymore, by now it will have ended for sure.
Is there a way to get a new one to at least see if it works before I have to pay?
