	I updated vMicro after a long hiatus—well, a lot of good that did me. Now suddenly it won't compile anything. ld.exe is reporting "file not found" for a bunch of .o files, but I've checked the compile folder, and those files are indeed there. It's just not seeing them and I don't know why. Code "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\teensy/../tools/arm/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc" -O1 -Wl,--gc-sections,--relax "-TC:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\teensy\avr\cores\teensy4/imxrt1062.ld" -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m7 -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=fpv5-d16 -o .elf" "Spiral01.cpp.o" "Kelvin2RGB-master\Kelvin2RGB.cpp.o" "Tlc5940\Tlc5940.cpp.o" "RunningAverage\RunningAverage.cpp.o" "RunningMedian\RunningMedian.cpp.o" "Entropy\Entropy.cpp.o" "ColorConverter\ColorConverter.cpp.o" "C:\Users\Ben\AppData\Local\Temp\VMBuilds\Spiral01\teensy40\Release/core.a" "-LC:\Users\Ben\AppData\Local\Temp\VMBuilds\Spiral01\teensy40\Release" -larm_cortexM7lfsp_math -lm -lstdc++ ld.exe: cannot find Spiral01.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find Kelvin2RGB-master\\Kelvin2RGB.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find Tlc5940\\Tlc5940.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find RunningAverage\\RunningAverage.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find RunningMedian\\RunningMedian.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find Entropy\\Entropy.cpp.o: No such file or directory ld.exe: cannot find ColorConverter\\ColorConverter.cpp.o: No such file or directory I've cleaned solution, rebuilt project, reinstalled Arduino and Teensyduino, updated VS2022, updated libraries...at a total loss here. The full compiler output with Build properties enabled is attached. I was able to get it to compile using Arduino 2, but then my code straight up doesn't work (Don't know why this would be) so I have to revert to 1.8.

	We have released an update (24.0722.05). It resolves all path issues and was a confusions between visual micro's, arduino 1x support and arduino 2x support. The compiler speed has also been improved. The version is available from the visual micro downloads page or via the new releases section of this form. Releases
