	Since I upgraded my Windows 10 to anniversary version ,when I try to upload bin files or Spiffs images I got very often error like this: ESP8266FSUpload.exe C:\Users\pbecc.DESKTOP-LS8PHJV\onedrive\Arduino\SensorServer\data\config.txt SPIFFS Creating Image... [SPIFFS] data : C:\Users\pbecc.DESKTOP-LS8PHJV\onedrive\Arduino\SensorServer\data [SPIFFS] size : 3052 [SPIFFS] page : 256 [SPIFFS] block : 8192 /config.txt SPIFFS Uploading Image... [SPIFFS] upload : nodemcuv2\Debug\9b2701e665899e9071fad21bf339008c/SensorServer.ino.spiffs.bin [SPIFFS] IP : 192.168.1.30 Impossibile trovare il file specificato (translation:file not found) SPIFFS Upload failed! Previously the .bin file was created in the Arduino/project_name/release directory, now it is created in the temporary directory and i get this error message.

	It's unrelated to windows version. I expect you also upgraded visual micro. Make sure "vmicro>compiler>always copy build output to intermediate" is enabled and also the ">always export binary" menu items
