	Getting the following error when trying to upload with OTA; python.exe 0-R/tools/espota.py -i "192.168.1.151" -p "8266" "--auth=" -f C:\Users\Russ\AppData\Local\Temp\VMICRO~1\RM_REL~3\ESP826~1/RM_REL~1.BIN The system cannot find the file specified Note: The file does exist. Could the short filename conventions be the problem? I'm using VS 2015 Community and the pro version of MicroVisual. The source successfully compiles.

	ps: As a test you can switch off 8dot3 short files names if you have the paid version? add a board.txt to the project folder and include in the project then put this in it:- Code upload.8dot3=false

	Still having the same problem and have tried the suggested post "upload.8dot3=false" suggestion. using version 1605.28.0 continuing to get: python.exe 0-R/tools/espota.py -i "192.168.1.200" -p "{network.port}" "--auth=" -f C:\Users\Russ\AppData\Local\Temp\VMICRO~1\RM_REL~1\ESP826~1/RM_REL~1.BIN Note: their are multiple files that match RM_REL~1. The directory path matches but the real filename is RM_Release_Gate.ino.bin

	Hi the error is because the ip address has been entered manually and not discovered using apple bonjour. The esp8266 has been designed to pass the port number via the apple system. -p "{network.port}" Alternatively, in Visual Micro, you can specify in the board.txt using network.port=8266 Read more in the esp8266 guide

	The latest version fixes an issue where the board.txt was being ignored if Verbose was not enabled Sorry.
