Every time I try to compile a program written in Arduino IDE 1.8.5 for NodeMCU (LoLIN version v3), I get the following error:
Arduino: 1.8.5 (Windows 10), Board: "NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module), 80 MHz, 115200, 4M (3M SPIFFS)"
C:\Users\sumeetpatil\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp8266\tools\xtensa-lx106-elf-gcc\1.20.0-26-gb404fb9-2/bin/xtensa-lx106-elf-ar: unable to rename 'C:\Users\SUMEET~1\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino_build_831529/arduino.ar'; reason: File exists
exit status 1
Error compiling for board NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module).
This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.
I have tried reinstalling several times, but I just can't get ahead of this step.
