so trying to compile 2.whatever to upgrade from 1.0.something, and i cant seem to compile. first errors i was getting were
identical to here, so i changed my temp directory, renamed folders, moved them to root directories, used beta and nightly builds of arduino ide, tried removing extra files from HAL... now i get the no such file error. its an arduino mega2560 with RAMPS1.4 and reprap discount full graphic controller (128x64 with rotary encoder and kill button) and if i comment out my lcd selection it actually does compile, sans screen. im finding bug reports about this issue going back 4 years now with no clear fix... marlin devs are blaming windows and microsoft thinks its been fixed since win7. supposedly it works with platformio but im not downloading an entirely new program for this one specfic use case. though i am working on making space to reinstall some linux distro or other, but is there an easier fix out there?
