It's that time of the year, the next release of Atmel Studio is finally done.

 

The readme/release note contains most of the info, so without further ado:

 

Note, that there's a big change in that we have moved all our older (2G) tools from Jungo to WinUSB. Hopefully this will resolve the ongoing issues with Windows 10 that are piling up.

 

We have also overhauled how DFPs interacts with the project system. It should now be more intuitive how to handle projects that are dependent on specific DFP versions.

 

For toolchains, there are new versions for AVR and ARM (yes, they are on their way onto the toolchain site as well, but with our new overlords there's some more hoops than usual, so bear with us while we work through that). 

 

AVR 8-bit GCC Toolchain 3.6.0 with upstream versions:

  • gcc 5.4.0
  • Binutils 2.26.20160125
  • avr-libc 2.0.0

 

ARM GCC Toolchain 6.2.1 with upstream versions:

  • gcc (ARM/embedded-6-branch revision 243739), GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain: 6-2016-q4-major
  • Binutils 2.27
  • gdb 7.12

Thanks Morten.

 

Just to be clear... is this a patch... or a complete package that could be installed onto a virgin system? For example Windows 7...

 

Thanks,

It's complete, it will install on a clean machine and upgrade existing 7.0 versions.

Puhhh, and again the whole suite. I have 100MBit link but my workmate uses an expensive satellite link. He will love it :-)
"compiler.targets" was overwritten (of course) and my project ran out of bounds. Everybody who changed that should keep an eye on it.
Maybe I will try to write-protect it?!

Oops, I was trying to open a previous project based upon an AT90USB1286 and got the "Update pack, The project is referring to a pack that is not installed" window.

Clicking on the "Download and install" button gives me window "Pack Manager", "Downloading Atmel.ATmega_DFP.1.0.106.atpack" with an error message:

Error occured (sic) while downloading.

The remote server returned and error: (403) Forbidden.

Edit: I just closed the error message window and update pack window. AS7 appeared to load the project correctly. I did a clean solution and build and it says it built correctly... (Hmmm)

I have installed it on a Win7-32 Laptop.   Hoping that I would be able to use my JTAGICE-mkII again.

 

Result.   The Dragon no longer works.   The JTAGICE-mkII remains dead.

 

I will wait until we hear from a Win10-64 user before having two inoperable AS7 PCs.

I see (in addition to 1.0.106) that versions 1.1.130 and 1.2.132 are shown in the drop down of the "Update Pack" window. Should I try one of these?

 

Edit: I had been using an older AS7 release (7.0.1006) and due to not wanting to upgrade in the middle of a project, I am just now upgrading...

@frog_jr You can see the public list here: http://packs.download.atmel.com/

 

@david did you get any warnings during the installation? When you connect the Dragon, is it listed under Jungo or Atmel in the device manager? (aka what do you mean with 'does not work'). Also, search for AVRSV-7827 in the release note and see if that helps.

Yes,   I got a Warning about a Windows Update at the very start of installation.   Can't remember the magic number.    But the magic number did not appear in the optional Updates,   so I could not see how I could access it.

 

When I start AS7,  I get a Usage Experience Failure on the first attempt.    Whatever that might be.

 

AS7 shows Simulator.   No mention of Dragon or JTAGICE-mkII

Device Manager just shows Other Devices->Unknown Device

 

I plugged an XMINI-mega168pb which seems to be recognised and remain Connected.   It appears in Device Manager under HID and COM.

 

The Dragon used to work with AS7.0.1188 (or whatever the previous Release was called)

The JTAGICE-2 has never worked with any AS7 version.

 

David.

Morten, care to expand on this?  I am not having any issues with teh version of AS7 I am using at times, and I already have all the MPLAB stuff so what has been 'embedded' that I might already have and do not need a second installation of?

I have both my Dragon and JTAGICE-2 working in Win10-64.  Well, they are appearing in Device Manager and Atmel Studio at least.  I didn't try programming or debugging.  (See bottom of post.)

 

The proof is in the pictures:

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT:  Using the Dragon, I successfully read the fuses and programmed the flash on an ATmega1284P plugged into a breadboard.  A firmware upgrade was not necessary!

Woody's Win10Tip: How to figure out your Windows 10 version

by

Nov 1, 2016

http://www.infoworld.com/article/3136336/microsoft-windows/woodys-win10tip-how-to-figure-out-your-windows-10-version.html

Your Windows 10 version -- build, Home/Pro, bit count -- controls much of your Windows life. Here's how to see where you are and where you might be headed

...

To see what version of Windows 10 you're using, go down to the Cortana search box (to the right of the Start icon), type the following:

winver

Then press Enter. You see the About Windows box for your machine.

...

Unfortunately, the About Windows box doesn't tell you for sure if you're running the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version of Windows 10. If you want to know the "bittedness" of your machine, you need to dig deeper. Click Start, then the Settings wheel. Choose System, then on the left choose About. You see the full details in the screenshot.

So, the MPLAB stuff is just a part of their USB stack. In the case for the change from Jungo it's just a thin wrapper on top of WinUSB.

 

 

As for the Jungo/WinDriver node, no it is not longer neccesary for Atmel Studios part. However we will not remove existing Jungo drivers, as that would interfere with for instance IAR and older Studios etc. If you don't want it anymore you can uninstall it in Add/Remove programs.

I unzipped and copied the directory to:

and pointed to this directory which contains the INF and DLL and CAT files.

 

I just get: "Windows was unable to Upgrade my Unknown Device"

And if you try the inf from here, does that help?

 

If not, could you PM me your setupapi.dev.log file (from %WINDIR%\INF\setupapi.dev.log).

So, first driver issues seems to be reported. This only happens on 32-bit Windows and on tools that were previously using Jungo. The inf here seems to fix the issue. (At least it worked for David). Will come back with more info as I know what is going on.

We have had a discussion internally, and we have decided to release a fix for the USB issue. We're working on this now and should be done in a couple of hours.

 

Note that due to reasons, the fix will download ~80MB when upgrading from build 1416. It is however not imperative to upgrade, as the only change is in the USB drivers for 32-bit Windows. Everything else is the same.

Build 1417 went online a couple of hours ago. This contains the fix to the 32-bit USB issue. Nothing else was changed.

I was fairly happy with the  previous 6 minutes to download but it was actually the best part of an hour for the installation to complete that really did for me. Please tell me this is the "final" version for now? surprise

the 1416 release works great for me and I do not see any reason to apply this upgrade.
As I understand there are no changes at all except the driver-fixes for 32-bit windows if Jungo-drivers were used before.
64 bit WIN here and everything fine.

My JTAGICE3 also works after a firmware-upgrade.

Yes, the only change is for the drivers on 32-bit Windows. There is absolutely no need for those that updated to 1416 to update to 1417 unless they want to smiley

I was able to repair that error by unpacking the .16 Zip that meolsen uploaded, and copied them in the address mentioned by David, then I simply closed AtmelStudio and reopened it, and it worked !, my AVR ISP MKII is alive again smiley

Thanks Guys yes

While (Jandcan->_status == ALIVE){

Morten,

 

is there also an offline installation available?

Also on the Atmel website the version seems to be 1188.

 

got a machine that I rather not have on an internet connection (testing machines that also are dependent on what windows updates are installed or not, and we have found out that every now and then windows does updates even though we disabled them) and that are in a highly restricted zone, so getting them on an internet connection is something that the higher management does not allow/want. till now I could just take my usb stick have it gone through all the procedures and then install the new version of studio.

Switch out -web with -full in the url above to get the full installer.

 

However we also allow the creation of 'custom' offline installers from the web installer (i.e you can choose the content of the installer), by passing -layout to the webinstaller. This means that you can in effect remove Architectures. This option is mostly used when deploying on networks etc, but I find it helpfull :) 

 

We are working on updating the website. Getting there soon wink

We have 2 Dell laptops with Windows10 x64, had Atmel Studio 7.0.1188 working with SAM-ICE (Segger), but after upgrading to 7.0.1417, one of them doesn't see any programmer device, not even EDBG from SAME70 Xplained boards. We uninstalled all Atmel drivers from Programs & Features, reinstalled AS7, without success to get it working again. The J-link driver is listed in Devices Manager without exclamation marks. Any idea what's wrong?

 

Best regards,

David.

So, I have a new WIN10 64 bit machine. Just tried the webinstaller on the Atmel site 1188, but it seemed to take forever. All the bars were complete, so I cancelled not knowing what was stuck or what.

No useful info on the install screen, just spinning circles  and I don't know where the install log went - can't find it now having closed it.

The install log showed many attempts at accessing the files on amazon servers failed so I downloaded the offline installer.

 

 

Checked here before launching it and see the 1417 build.

Here we go .. with 1417

I have installed just last night AS7 on a laptop, if you click on details you should see the downloaded file and size, it was very slow, for me took about 2 hours.

OK. Thanks.

Gone into DPF manager and installed everything relevant.

Project loads now.

 

I don't recall ever having to do anything with these DPFs before in my old Win 7 Studio 7 machine. From memory it just worked  - but that was a while ago .. may have forgot.

Just open the list and select DFP in version 1.2.xxx instead of the "new update available" 1.0.90, that gets the error 403.

Hi,

 

I have the 1417 build installer but the Studio 7.0 won't start. It crashes when I launch it and asks me to debug or close application. The error message simply says 'Atmel Studio 7.0 has stopped working'. Please help resolve this. I have Windows 10.

 

Regards

By the way, where has Percepio Trace gone in Atmel Studio 7.0.1417? It is not there anymore after update, and it does not appear in the Extensions either.

Hi,

 

I'm running the 1417 under Windows 7. Installation worked, it compiles, but my GUI stucks about every 5 seconds for about 1-2 seconds. This is very annoying, a continuous workflow is nearly impossible (the complete Atmel Studio is affected). Did anyone else encountered this problem so far? The last Atmel Studio (1188 for me) worked fine.

 

Regards

Good point, unfortunately not. During my problem analysis I disabled/closed all unnecessary windows processes. The Task-Manager doesn't give me helpful hints.

Does it mean that it is removed from the Extensions as well? Can I revert the installation to a previous version to have it? Or will it disappear forever from the Extensions section? Is there a way to install it separately? Or will there be a similar feature installed?

We have removed it from the studio installation due to the license. However, if Percepio wants to make it available in the gallery is up to them. I don't know if they want to do that (I haven't had the chance to talk to them about this yet). 

 

I'm sure that if you ask them you'll at least get an answer wink

Are you aware that the Atmel Studio Webpage still shows 1188 as the latest. Just downloaded the 1188 full installer and the first question was: "There is a newer version ..." ... sigh. Also the release notes are for 1188. The ones you posted here are newer.

Yes, we know...

Note that when you download 1188, you don't have to check the "download newest" (if that was the question).

I am not privy to the contractual agreements between Atmel and Percepio. My understanding based on your statements is that Percepio Trace was removed from the Gallery by Atmel because of the agreement's expiry, but Percepio might not know about it yet?

After a complete reinstallation of Atmel Studio .1417 (by as-installer-7.0.1417-web.exe) everything works fine, last time I updated from .1188. I know that Atmel Studio is based on VS 2015, but my web search showed me, that some VS 2017 users have exactly the same problem. (link1 link2)

Where there's a will there's a way. I had the will, so I found the way.

 

Nonetheless, the release notes for the latest version should specify the disappearance of Percepio Trace.

I just upgraded to the new version of Studio 7 7.0.1417. I'm using Windows 10. Now I can not see any of my programming tools.

The Device Programming screen shows: "There are no Available tools"

I also get an error saying "The back end process exited with code -1073740791"

What is going on?. Should I try to go back to my previous version. I'm using Windows 10.

Is the new version still unofficial? I cannot find it on http://www.atmel.com/tools/atmel..., there is 7.0.1188. I can't find release notes for 7.0.1417 as well.

That's right. However, when I tried to install 7.0.0.188 it says there is a later version and asks if you would like to install the newest version. I clicked yes and I got 7.0.1417.

7.0.1417 is official, it's just that updating the web site is a task that (obviously) takes some time. Not everything is running smooth after the merger. 

 

@acab, try to delete the content in Atmel\Studio\7.0\atbackend\codeCache\ and start Studio again. If not even the simulator is showing in the tools list there is nothing wrong with your tools, it's the backend that is having issues.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately I got impatient and I decided to go back and install the old version I had which was working mostly. But It would crash with an error of "AVR8 Device Support". Therefore, I tried to re-install 7.0.1417 but I got the same error.
When I checked the Atmel site I noticed that the latest version recommended is 7.0.1188. So I donwloaded it and tried to install with the same result plus more errors listed. It also shows some links on how to troubleshoot. However when I click them I get sent to a web page that is not working.

I submitted a support case to Microchip but no answer yet.

I noticed Atmel studio still shows up as an installed. I tried to uninstall but that only restarts the installation and I get the same error again:


So to summarize my problem is that I don't have Atmel Studio anymore and any attempt to install it fail.

How can I get Atmel Studio installed again?

FYI!

It seems my problem was a corrupted registry. Tried to Fix it with Microsoft Fix-It but didn't work. Finally I used Revo Uninstaller and that worked. Great program!.

I have installed version 7.0.1188. I still have to properly fix everything but I'm hopeful.

Thanks everybody for listening to my sorrow.

What's the "MPLAB" component installed when this version is installed?

 

Should I be worried we will eventually be forced to use that inferior IDE?

Hello,

I'm using win10 creators update (attached file), Atmel studio 7 build 1417, Atmega324P MCU and JTAGICE3/Atmel ICE. I can use JTAGICE3 or Atmel ICE to flash the code to board successfully. But can not debugging due to "Debugger command Prog Mode Leave failed" error, then the FUSES were reset (JTAGEN changed from checked to unchecked).

Do you have any idea to resolve this issue? Thank you.

Hello,

I tried to update to 7.0.1417 on Win 7 but it doesn't work. AS installer says that I have to update Windows KB2999226 (essential) and KB2670838 and KB2978092 (optional), but all are installed!

I tried to deinstall the 3 updates and reinstall using Windows Update - no success. AS installer doesn't finish the installation because of the missing updates.

What's going wrong and how can I install 1417?

Hans

It’s always looking for IronPython v2.7.0.4

 

I had the latest IronPython installed 2.7.5, that didn’t work.

I reinstalled v2.7.4 and that didn’t work.

I can find a specific version 2.7.0.4

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

i installed AS 7.0.1417 on a Windows 10 64bit OS.

I have a AVR ISP MK2 Programmer.

 

In AS the Tools list stay empty, no Programmer, no Simulator.

Target is a ATtiny2313A.

 

The USB Device seems ok, and the programmer work with AVRDUDE.

 

Any Ideas?

See if it works if you connect the MK2 and then run AS7.

The error message talks about an earlier version of "Microsoft Redistributable 2010" being present and that it is a "blocker" for installing Atmel Studio.

 

Are you sure about that youre trying to install "the latest version"? You're talking about "AVR Studio" but it's been caölled "Atmel Studio" for many years now. Also, I can (faintly) read in your screen shot that it tries to install "Microsoft C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable Setup". I do not think (but am not 100% sure) that it is a part of the latest Atmel Studio install.

 

As far as sI know Atmel Studio 7 is based on newer components than that from Microsoft.

 

Can you tell us what version of Studio you're trying to install? I.e. give us the version number. Also tell us where/how you got it.

 

BTW, your screenshot is ridiculously small and very hard to read. Whenever possible, it is much better to copy error messages as text and paste them in a post here. Or possibly do a decent screenshot and copy messages as text and post both.

As of January 15, 2018, Site fix-up work has begun! Now do your part and report any bugs or deficiencies here. 

No guarantees, but if we don't report problems they won't get much of  a chance to be fixed! Details/discussions at link given just above.

OK. My French is a bit rusty, haven't spoken or written in it for 40+ years, so had to look up "récente" , and of course it's the same as the English "recent".

 

So, it looks like the Visual C++ 2015 has installed a newer version of the "redistributable" than the one coming with Atmel Studio.

 

I'm sorry, but I don't know what to do about this. One interesting StackExchange thread found while searching: https://stackoverflow.com/questi... . PErhaps there's something in that to help you?

Could anyone share the note "How to downgrade to use older Jungo drivers." referenced in the release notes for 1417?

The Server behind the embedded link http://atmel.force.com/support/articles/en_US/FAQ/Downgrading-tools-to-use-older-Jungo-driver seem to be down and Atmel sales support is not answering my mail...

 

Thanks

Microchip support helped me. The support articles have been migrated to the microchip site:

https://microchip.secure.force.com/microchipknowledge/articles/en_US/FAQ/Downgrading-tools-to-use-older-Jungo-driver

 

Maybe they should put this info into the old database offline-message instead of the useless standard message i've got....

Hopefully this will resolve the ongoing issues with Windows 10 that are piling up.
Is it possible for Atmel Studio to eventually be in Microsoft Store?

Reason : Windows 10 S

Am uncertain this is possible because Microsoft Visual Studio is not in Microsoft Store though Atmel Studio having Visual Studio Isolated Shell may make this a possibility.

Windows 10 S is likely to be popular in the US for primary, secondary, and post-secondary education and for libraries.

Locally, I doubt Arduino is in secondary schools; any primary and secondary educational use of Arduino is at one library with one professor from the engineering college.

With a reasonable drive, or a few/several mass transit rides, one can be at one library that has a makerspace.

The upgrade to Windows 10 Pro from S has a price of 49USD for a low price notebook PC (zero for more expensive PC with the zero price upgrade ending 2018-Mar-31)

 

Computerworld

How Windows 10 S is different from the Windows 10 you know

Windows 10 S isn't just for education; Microsoft hopes the new Windows edition will find its way into homes and enterprises, too. But beneath the familiar user interface are some significant differences.

by

Computerworld | Sep 25, 2017

https://www.computerworld.com/article/3227066/microsoft-windows/how-windows-10-s-is-different-from-the-windows-10-you-know.html

...

This is a full version of Windows with some limitations, one that’s designed to start up quickly, have long battery life, and keep working properly month after month after month, without resets or support calls.

...

Another is that schools are usually short on IT resources, so they’re looking for simpler management options that rely on the cloud.

...

 

A pristine PC

...

More significantly, this is a Windows that restricts which applications you can run (they have to come from the Windows Store) and ...

...

That [Azure Active Directory] removes Group Policy, a feature that gives IT admins control but also slows systems down and makes Windows fragile.

...

Instead of Group Policy,  it’s managed the way smartphones and tablets are, using MDM tools and cloud identities.

...

... and to install apps – either online or via a USB stick that teachers or admins plug into Windows 10 S devices.

...

Because Windows 10 S only runs software from the Windows Store, all the apps use a virtualized registry, so one app can’t affect the settings another app uses.

 

Windows Store restrictions

...

You can install desktop applications on Windows 10 S, but only if they’ve been sandboxed by Microsoft’s Desktop Bridge tool and come through the Windows Store.

...

Other software publishers using the Desktop Bridge tool to deliver software include ...

...

 

How to get Windows 10 S

...

... Windows 10 S ISO is available on the Microsoft Developer Network so schools can put it on their existing hardware and IT departments can test it.

...

(other than MSDN, it's on specific new OEM PCs)

 

How to get off of Windows 10 S

...

Schools can switch to Windows 10 Pro Edu at any time and at no cost.

Why does the "Update pack, The project is referring to a pack that is not installed" happen?  Are these things that did not get downloaded installed with the main program install?

 

It is cool that the int24 has been added.  I sure would love to see double floating point too!

@Morten can (and will) probably correct me if I'm wrong, but packs installed when installing Atmel Studio will be updated/replaced with newer versions when you install a new Atmel Studio version. Packs you have manually installed will be left untouched. Your project was created before you updated Studio, and the Studio update upgraded the part pack.

 

All part packs are available at packs.download.atmel.com, so you can get any version you want.

Google Drive seems to blocks the files if it is syncing your files.

You may have the same thing happening with it or Dropbox.

Perhaps using my AVRISP MkII on Atmel Studio 7.0.1645 running under Windows 10 did not cause the degree of trouble for others that it did for me, but in case it did, here is how I fixed it. Firstly, the PROBLEM.  Simply, after installation of Studio 7.0 my AVRISP MkII would no longer connect to the TARGET. The AVRISP MkII would not even show up in 'Selected debugger/programmer' window (entered by clicking on the hammer tool on the toolbar at the top). The only choices were "Simulator" or "Custom".

 

I was aware that Atmel Studio 7.0 changed from using the Jungo driver (used for previous versions) to the winUSB driver so I set about troubleshooting that particular aspect. 

 

I uninstalled Atmel Studio 7.0 and reinstalled using the Web Connected method (there are two methods available for downloading: One is called on-line and the other is called off-line). Results were still the same. 

 

I then viewed a video from the Indian Youtube page "KnowledgeShelf" for which I am eternally grateful. It was a walkthrough of the 'off-line' method and it was during this that I saw that the Jungo driver had to be replaced. 

 

I then set about changing the USB driver and that was no easy feat. Anything automatic always came back to installing the Jungo driver with exactly the same symptoms as mentioned above no matter whether the Jungo driver was uninstalled first or whatever. The results were always the same. I tried manually searching for the correct winUSB driver but kept coming up with something that was rejected by the Installer software. I even attempted to get the driver from Microchip but was offered instead a discount voucher for an ATTiny for the inconvenience of arriving at a 404 Web message. "Great, I thought, I could have a room full of them and nothing to program them with" ... but I digress,  

 

Once more I set about uninstalling Atmel 7.0 with the intention of installing it using the method of KnowledgeShelf, and I had just committed to the uninstall action when I noticed some folders in the uninstall window which looked suspiciously like they contained driver packages. Tracking these back to their source I found that they were under Windows > Program Files (x86) > Atmel > Studio. Yes. That's right, unlike Atmel Studio 6.0 or Atmel Studio 6.2 which are both marked with the full name, for what ever reason, this automatic installation has named the folder simply 'Studio'.  

 

Under Studio,  there is a folder marked 7.0 and another marked Drivers.  If you look in Drivers > inf you will find winUSB and under winUSB you will find another folder with the elusive 'atmel_winusb'.

 

When I returned to Device Manager to manually configure the driver, I just gave the path-name to that Drivers folder. (Excitement and expectation was now building to a feverish pitch). 

 

Anyhow, the upshot is that once that was in place, everything worked. I plugged the AVRISP into the computer USB port and good old Plug and Play found the Device, made a new look entry  (see below) in the Device Manager table which I quickly examined in detail. Going through right click on AVRISP mkII and looking through the detail tabs of the information presented, I could see that I was now referencing winusb.sys of the system32 drivers. 

 

And there you have it. Hope this helps somebody else.

I have tried to update studio 7 and succeeded in messing things up.   I believe it is all related to CefShar.Core.dll or one of it's dependencies. 

 

At least the following will no longer work:

 

  • can not exit from studio - have to use the task manager as I always get an error.
  • Can not get to the start.atmel.com from within studio
  • can not update a start program from within studio

 

I have uninstalled/reinstsalled multiple times

I have searched for all CefShap.Core.dll    (they do exist in the atmel extentions)

I have cleaned all registry items i could find

I have deleted all residual folders I could find

 

 

Installing on a clean machine seems to work without issues so its something releated to my computer

 

I believe (but speak from a great amount of ignorance) that the issues is related to the search order of the ddls, but not sure how to configure that.

 

Does anyone any other ideas on how to solve this issue?

 

 

Thanks

This page is gone.  No mention of ATMEL anymore.   Sad.

This link has changed.  All I get is phone numbers, and I don't think my issues are easily debugged over the phone.  Thanks MicroChip!

Just noticed I had to register for an account before I could use the Case request.  Of course even sign up was not without issues!   Not impressed.
