Hi Alexander,

Sorry, I've missed this issue :(

Could you try our new portable installer? We have not released it with IDE yet: https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/core/installation.html#local-download-mac-linux-windows

1. So, please download this file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/platformio/platformio-core-installer/master/get-platformio.py and save under get-platformio.py.

2. Open system cmd.exe terminal and type python get-platformio.py --verbose.

Do you see any errors? Please provide an output.

PlatformIO Core has been successfully installed into an isolated environment C:\Users\Alex-NB\.platformio\penv!

The full path to platformio.exe is C:\Users\Alex-NB\.platformio\penv\Scripts\platformio.exe

If you need an access to platformio.exe from other applications, please install Shell Commands
(add PlatformIO Core binary directory C:\Users\Alex-NB\.platformio\penv\Scripts to the system environment PATH variable):

See https://docs.platformio.org/page/installation.html#install-shell-commands
```

This is the output of the installation script. It worked fine

Great! We are going to integrate a new installer into VSCode next week.

Does VSCode work now?

[heumann-a]

Unfortunately not...

These are my Settings of IDE. are these correct?

[ivankravets]

Your settings are correct. Do you see Home icon on the bottom of toolbar?

[heumann-a]

Ah i need to do a little workaround but it worked now

you need to set "platformio-ide.activateOnlyOnPlatformIOProject" to false to see it everytime

Thank you very much!!

[ivankravets]

Ahhhh! Not I understand. Another option was to open the PlatformIO Project.

We would be thankful if you update your review here: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=platformio.platformio-ide&ssr=false#review-details

We are an open-source project and the whole of our work is free. These places like Microsoft Marketplace help us to find new users. Thanks!
