nrF5 Command Line Tools dissappered

[maxfus]

Hi,

I’m facing a strange problem regarding  nrfjprog

I used it for many times without any problem

Now I’m preparing a VBNET app to program a flash sector of the nRF52832 and I decided to use it launched by a bat file which in turn is launched by the VBNET app

Here is the bat file code

set path=%path%;"%AppData%\Board_Code_Folder"

del %AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\outfile.hex

%AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\srec_cat  %AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\infile -binary -offset 0x2C000 -o %AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\outfile.hex -Intel

IF %errorlevel% EQU 1 GOTO out

set path=%path%;c:\Program Files (x86)\Nordic Semiconductor\nrf5x\bin\

nrfjprog --program %AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\outfile.hex  --sectorerase -f  NRF52

:out

 REM pause

 EXIT /B %ERRORLEVEL%

 

The file “nRF5x-Command-Line-Tools_9_7_2_Installer.exe” is launched by the setup file

I used inno setup installer and I can verify that the “Command-Line-Tools” is recalled and installed

PROBLEM

IN THE DIRECTORY “C:\ C:\Program Files (x86)\Nordic Semiconductor\nrf5x\bin” 

the Nrfjprog.exe (previously it was there) DOES NOT APPEAR 

Thus my BAT FILE FAILS where it calls :

nrfjprog --program %AppData%\Board_Code_Folder\outfile.hex  --sectorerase -f  NRF52

I made many attempts uninstalling  the  nRF5x-Command-Line-Tools and reinstalling  it even manually

But the result is still the same

NO  TRACE OF NRFJPROG

ANY IDEA ?

Thanks

CAN YOU SEND IT APART OF THE INSTALLATION FILE ?

Hi, are there any other files in your installation folder  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nordic Semiconductor\nrf5x\bin", or is it completely empty?

Now I realized   (after cancelling the dir and then reinstalling the package ) that the directory is not created at all.

nrf5x is not created and obviously neither bin

Ok, what version of windows are you on?

[maxfus]

windows 10.

But you must be aware that I solved the problem installing the command line tools on another computer  and copying the resulting directory NRF5X and its BIN in the failing computer.

Now all is working ok

Take all your time I have no rush because I solved (in some way) the problem
