	Hi, When I try to build any project with selected z-uno board (Visual Studio 2017), I have a general compilation error: Error compiling core \n File couldn't be found. In Arduino IDE 1.8.5 sketch build and upload occurs normally... I could not find more detailed logs to solve the problem myself. Config for board http://z-uno.z-wave.me/files/z-uno/package_z-wave.me_index.json Thanks!

	Hi This fails for me in both visual micro and arduino ide. in the arduino ide please switch on file>preferences>verbose compile. then build. highlight the output after the build and copy the text into a .txt file, then email to info@visualmicro.com Thanks

	Thanks for the log. It might be something related to virus checker but that might be rubbish. It needs investigation and is a strange config with "dummy" build commands. You can see verbose build by switching on "vmicro>compiler>verbose" also "show build properties". Does this file exist on your pc? .60/zuno_toolchain/compiler"

	In "tools\zuno_toolchain\00.08.60\zuno_toolchain" exist only "compiler.exe". No any files without extension. Thanks for help with build logs in vs, now i see some strange behavior, Code 60\zuno_toolchain\avr-gcc -c -g -Os -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -mmcu=zuno -DF_CPU=16000000L -MMD -DUSB_VID=0x2341 -DUSB_PID=0x8039 -DARDUINO=10805 res\zuno" s\zuno\LLCore_arduino.c" -o arduino.c.o" Process: 60\zuno_toolchain\avr-gcc -c -g -Os -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -mmcu=zuno -DF_CPU=16000000L -MMD -DUSB_VID=0x2341 -DUSB_PID=0x8039 -DARDUINO=10805 res\zuno" s\zuno\LLCore_arduino.c" -o arduino.c.o" So it seems that vs try to use avr-gcc, that specify in "compiler.c.cmd" variable from incorrect platform.txt (for arduino boards). Is this possible?

	no but if it thinks the definition is invalid then it falls back to old style avr. when i extracted the board using both arduino ide and visual micro the compiler.exe is not in that location. which is why I asked for your output. So I will look into why it is not there. it usually means Symatec has flagged the exe as suspect. It gets a lot of false positives with custom tool chain .exe files.

	I just deleted the package and tried reinstall. I must have missed the blocked warning the first time i installed It's definitely blocked

	This is the virus report. I've seen it before and is usually false positive but treated as serious. https://www.symantec.com/en/sg/security-center/writeup/2016-051811-2400-99 The .exe author should add an icon to the .exe. It's missing things like that causes it. Uggh.
