	Since adding the RF24 libraries, I've been getting the error xtensa-esp32-elf-g++*: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory If I remove the includes from the project again, the project is compiled without errors again. I have also created a new project and only added the RF24 library. This compiles with no errors. That's why I think it has nothing to do with the library. With the Arduino2 environment I can also compile the project without problems. Can someone help me to solve the problem?

	Does it build in release mode?

	No, it was compiled under debug. I've now compiled it under release and it works without errors. Great, thanks for your help. But I don't understand why that is?

	Thanks. If you add a loal board.txt with this setting in it can you then compile in debug mode without error? vm.settings.shorten-include-paths=true

	Yes, it works. What is it that you have to use the shorten-include-path? Thank you for your quick help

	Updated... Arduino2 is just below the windows 32k limit for a process. PlatformIO doesn't use the arduino build system. Enabling soft debug adds a number of defines to the command line which is already massive for esp32. + the visual micro temp build folder is longer than the one the arduino ide uses. We will shorten it and also enable relative paths when the command is going to blow the 32k limit. Because the esp32 command line is so close to the windows limit I expect espressif will change things in due course.
