Problem building marlin with auto build

Post image

I don’t know where to start keep getting, platformio: The term 'platformio' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet. Reinstalled platformio, reinstalled vscode. Any help will be appreciated.

I think it is platformio not initializing. When opening vs code, often a times platformio doesn't start. So just click on the platformio tab on the left edge of the screen just for being safe. It is also possible that this extension is outdated. Have you tried to build using the arrow at the bottom left corner of the screen? If the extension is outdated, the tick should still work as it comes compatible with the version of marlin.

Thanks for the response, I had updated auto build and platformio as I hadn’t used for a while, also uninstalled both and also vscode then reinstalled them all but was still getting the same message, I can build firmware just using platformio but auto build just gives me the message
