Syntax Error about minicore HOT 11 CLOSED

avrdude: error at C:\Users\parshikovsv\Documents\Arduino\hardware\MiniCore-3.0.1\avr/avrdude.conf:421:

Remove the manually installed MiniCore version and install the whole thing though the boards manager instead. The problem is that the Avrdude version that's bundled with the IDE is too old to parse the Avrdude.conf file that MiniCore uses.

from minicore.

It would help if you shared the actual Avrdude output.

Which version of MiniCore do you currently have installed?

Right now i don't have access to my work pc. I will share it tomorrow. (It's night time in my country)
Syntax error is related to miniCore 3 (with urboot version). I downloaded it today morning . Verbose output shows just 2 lines, 1st line is syntax error at line 421 of avrdude.conf
2nd line is avrdude.conf can't be opened

You need to install the lastest Minicore version from the boards manager. That will also install Avrdude 7.2, which is required.

Hi guys!
I also encountered a similar problem. I tried reinstalling the IDE, changing the avrdude.conf file, installing different versions of the IDE and MiniCore - it didn't help.
Help me please!
All this happened when trying to install the bootloader for Atmega328PB, when trying to install other microcontrollers - the situation is the same...

Thanks for the quick response!
The thing is that I can’t use the board manager because I don’t have access to the Internet. Internet access is only available from a remote desktop. Is there a way to fix this error without using a board manager?
Thank you very much in advance!

You'll either have to manually replace the Avrdude executable with 7.2, or download MiniCore v2.x instead, which uses Avrdude 6.3

from minicore.

Thank you very much for your answer!
I apologize in advance for what is probably a stupid question. But how to do that?

from minicore.

Download the latest v2.x version here (zip file), and install it manually, as described in the README. That should hopefully just work.
