Hello @kzajac83, we are sorry for the inconvenience there has been some issue with the builds of the Installer because of the FTDI driver.

Right now all the builds should be fixed again and available on the Installer's page https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf/

Thank you for your understanding.

Edit:
FYI - the installation should be successful when the option to run the ESP-IDF console pops up and the console will run.

@kzajac83 Can you try to install the IDF into the C drive?
This error looks a bit strange and this might help to move.

Installing 1st time esp-idf-tools-setup-online-2.28.exe (Universal Installer) appear request to add something to MS registry and I do that, next appear issue with drivers plus 2nd mentioned issue. Next time using Universal Installer no request for add key to the registry and after add missing drivers stay only 2nd issue. Before every next attempt installation deleting D:\Espressif directory.

Next I decide to download ~2GB offline installer esp-idf-tools-setup-espressif-ide-3.0.0-with-esp-idf-5.2.2.exe and on begging of installation appear request to add below to registry:

powershell -Command "&{ Start-Process -FilePath reg 'ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem /v LongPathsEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f' -Verb runAs}"

I don't know this is the same as Universal Installer request one time but, if yest then I add it already and Universal Installer not requested any more for that. But Offline Installer request the same (or this is other registry requesty add ??).

Anyway after use Offline Installer and use drive D:\ all pass fine.

Something wrong must be in Universal Installer, maybe something is not downloading?

Anyway probably I will not more need installing hence cannot help more but if something need please ask.

BR, Krzysiek

Thank you for the information, we will take a look and check if everything is correct.

I am glad that it works for you.

Seems that the FTDI driver download is not working
esp-idf-tools-setup-offline-5.3.1.exe

Edit:
Placing a manual download from the FTDI website and renaming it to ftdi.zip and rerunning the installers seems to work.

@Hahihula Would it be possible to use newly developed Insaller to resolve the problem?
