Hello,

I do know recognise the "save" window in your picture

Also the project you have open is Sketch1 but the window in your picture shows Sketch2

So maybe you are trying to create a new project called Sketch2?

Anyway this is a visual studio function to save and create projects so this suggests you have a permissions problem or the path you have set for projects to be saved into is invalid?

a) this is the second try after reinstall of the visual micro extension. VS has only created the folder sketch1 and sketch2 in my personal document folder (C:\Users\tengel\Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects).
Creating and save of other projects like C++, C# or VB works fine on VS...

Cheers
Torsten

Okay can be please be clear about what you are trying to do and what you click to perform that operation?

When you say "save" do you mean you are trying to create a new project or are you clicking "Save As" or are you trying to save an already open project?

When i use File -> New -> Arduino Project, than the project is stored in my arduino project folder on C:\Users\tengel\Documents\Arduino. All files saved.

When i use File -> New Project -> Templates -> Other Languages -> C++ -> Arduino Project, than the reported error is displayed, when i try to save the project with File -> Save All.

Cheers

I see. I think your visual studio c++ project path is wrong. Does the path shown in the error exist?

Please click File>New>C++ project then click "Save"

This is really all an arduino project is.

In fact if you create a new empty c++ win32 project and add a .ino with the same name then Visual Micro should start working and see it as an Arduino project.
