Hi,
to answer to your request I have created new workspace and new project on my desktop, but I was unable to recreate the failure. Actually it seems it depends on the directory naming. I did the same in my work directory and then I reproduce the problem.
All my workspaces are on a USB drive and a typical directory is like that (I only change the company name) :
V:\1--- CompanyName ---\MSP430-dev\100 workspaceTest
I used the same directory naming with previous version (CCS v5, v4, v3 ...) without any problem.
Can you try with this naming ?
Regards
Peter
