ESP8266 Community Forum

- Fri Mar 06, 2015 12:18 pm #11466 Several times I got a bad 'Save to ESP' using ESPlorer, after that I couldn't remove the file using the Lua command. I had to re-flash Lua with NodeMCU Firmware Programmer to restore control of the ESP8266 with Lua commands. This happened when the Lua script didn't compile properly. Any idea how to fix it without having to re-flash NodeMCU?
Thanks

The file didn't get erased!
