struggling on nRF5340 Development environment setup on Windows 10.

[selvam]

Hi Nordic Team,

Summary: Please guide to open and build simple example nRF5340 project using Segger IDE on Windows 10

Details: 

We tried to have Segger IDE setup for nRF5340 using nRF Connect SDK .

The plan is first to build simple project (like blink without RTOS). Final application shall be BLE mesh based.

Issue Faced: After installing SDK 1.5.0 , we got only .West and toolchain, others folder were missed,

So that we downloaded the folders bootloader, nrfxlib, nrf, zephyr. 

Then through below link, tried to install the dependencies

https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/gs_assistant.html#gs-assistant 

https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/gs_installing.html 

https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/zephyr/getting_started/index.html#install-required-tools -- Actually shows only Linux(Ubuntu) related steps

It looks like , the links are switch over to multiple level and going here and there. 

After doing few circus, we tried to open the project we are getting the error:  Create_Nordic_project.py failed.

Please guide us to resolve this error

Note: It looks like nRF Connect SDK based Segger environment setup is more complicate , as it has more dependency tool, unlike nRF52 series SDK (ex: nRF52832)

Conclusion : Please guide us to make a Segger nRF5340 environment setup on Windows 10 through resolving the error:  "Create_Nordic_project.py failed"

Thanks

Hello Selvam.

Yes, there are several ways to install the SDK. The easiest and recommended way however is to do it via the Toolchain Manager, so let us start there.

Could you remove your current SDK v1.5.0 installation (as shown in the picture below)? 

Please check if the folder “v1.5.0” has been removed completely in your installation directory, just in case. You can find the path by clicking on the “SETTINGS” button if you are unsure.

Thereafter, please re-install SDK v1.5.0. When finished, click on the “OPEN LOG FILE” button and provide me with the log of the installation.

It should look like this:
