I downloaded Microchip studio from microchip and installed it over atmel studio v7.

Now I can not configure my project from atmel start. 

Anyone having same problem?

This topic has a solution.

Do other things work ?

Top Tips:

  1. How to properly post source code - see: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment... - also how to properly include images/pictures
  2. "Garbage" characters on a serial terminal are (almost?) invariably due to wrong baud rate - see: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/serial-communication
  3. Wrong baud rate is usually due to not running at the speed you thought; check by blinking a LED to see if you get the speed you expected

I have done a clean reinstall it did not solve the problem.

I have atmel ICE connected to my costum pcb, so far yes.

Also I created a new example atmel start project it did not crash, then I changed some configurations within microchip studio via re-configuring atmel start it did not crash.

I think it has something to do with projects which were created by atmel studio.

I recreated atmel start file from microchip studio and imported my header and source files to this new project folder.

For now everything seems to be ok I can program with atmel ice and reconfigure using atmel start withing microchip studio.

I had the same issue and that was my only solution, to rebuild a new and drop in the code I wrote.

I am also having trouble enabling the 32kHz oscillators

Max_TMP: If you are using one of the newer Tiny/Mega chips, starting or stopping 32KHz oscillator requires dealing with change protection. Check out something like:

 

_PROTECTED_WRITE(CLKCTRL.XOSC32KCTRLA,CLKCTRL_RUNSTDBY_bm | CLKCTRL_ENABLE_bm);

Same problem here. 7.0.2542 kills atmel START for pre-existing projects.

The answer from charla has also worked for me and seems the better solution!

Hi

 

I know this is an old thread but I have just experienced the same problem (May 2022).
The solution below, gives the answer, but now it is simply a matter of doing the updates to get that patch.

Goto Tools/Extensions & Updates/ Updates / Microchip.

I installed all updates offered here and the crashes when generating my project were fixed.

Hope this helps.

Kevin
