	Hello ! I'm new here. I've been happily using VMicro for my ESP8266 projects; but I recently bought an ESP32 and it seems the compiler has issues with the path: (sorry for the Hungarian language; the problematic part is in bold): "Compiling debug version of 'ESP32_WiFi' for 'ESP32 Wrover Module' A rendszer nem tal lja a megadott el‚r‚si utat C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\java\bin>if exist "C:\mounted\VMicro\ESP32_WiFi\ESP32_WiFi\partitions.csv" copy /y "C:\mounted\VMicro\ESP32_WiFi\ESP32_WiFi\partitions.csv" "C:\Users\BalĂˇzs\v" 0 file(s) copied. " I think the compiler should use the path as: "C:\Users\Balázs\AppData\Local\Temp\VMBuilds\ESP32_WiFi\espressif_esp32wrover\Debug\" Seems to be an encoding problem... But how can I fix it? Any help is appreciated Balázs

	Many thanks!! Now it works! However... I got another strange message: "... *gen_esp32part.py:507: Unicode equal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal** Program size: 261 854 bytes (used 20% of a 1 310 720 byte maximum) (7,05 secs) Minimum Memory Usage: 13580 bytes (4% of a 327680 byte maximum)" It doesn't affect the result (the app is running anyways), but might cause (?) problems later...
