I'm seeing the same thing.
Same environment / Windows 7
Seems related to idf.py.exe sending version (--version) to Stdout.

Thank you for the reports. We have reproduced the issue and the fix is coming soon.

[igrr]

In the meantime, you can download the fixed version from https://dl.espressif.com/dl/idf-exe-v1.0-fix.zip, extract it, and replace C:\Users\username\.espressif\tools\idf-exe\1.0\idf.py.exe. After this, export.bat and the "ESP-IDF Command Prompt" shortcut should work.

Hi @igrr

By replacing idf.py.exe it works..!

[mazorvanunu]

haha lol those errors... did install.bat then export.bat showed everything ok... still no idf.py in path, people in espressif just code smth and print it out, no testing no nothing... whats the point???
