I'm having trouble with the very first steps in a new IDF 6.0:
(1) Clean, fresh and virgin system
(2) Creating c:\Espressif folder to have all the stuff there
(3) Espressif-IDE downloaded and saved to c:\espressif\IDE
(4) Installing EIM -> IDF6.0 -> everything installs & gets fine in c:\Espressif. All the steps are OK, cannot attach screenshots dut to limitation of 3 files!
(5) Launching Espressif-IDE.
Note the upper-left corner with a faulty title "workspace - null - Espressif-IDE"

(6) Activating the 6.0 IDF and having this wierd error:
Executing:[C:\Espressif\tools\python\v6.0.1\venv\Scripts\python.exe, C:\Espressif\IDE\null\tools\idf.py, --list-targets]
C:\Espressif\tools\python\python.exe: can't open file 'C:\\Espressif\\IDE\\null\\tools\\idf.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Sure there is no NULL folder!
And I cannot track down the bad script that has this bad path speciefied....
With that said I can do absolutely nothing!
Please help me out.
I'd like to upgrade from an old but fully functional IDF 5.0.1 (on another machine) to 6.0.
/* The only reason for that is a poor 5.0 Wifi driver that DOES NOT allow AP channel switching when clients are online - esp_wifi_set_channel() fails. ChatGPT says IDF 6.0 wifi driver can carry out all the CSA actions correctly and switch clients seamlessly.... NOTE: if this is not true then I don't need this 6.0 either. */
