MPLABX 5.05 cannot find assembler
I just attempted to re-install MPLABX 5.05 and it cannot find the assembler. I attempted to force it using: Tools - Options - Embedded - Build Tools and attempted to point it to the folder with the assembler. It tells me that there is no tool chain there! I have NOT installed it to the default folder. However, I have successfully installed MPLABX to non-default folders successfully since MPLAB 3. I did successfully install 5.05 to the same file path on another computer so I know it should work. Both computers are running Windows 10 pro 64 bit. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

What part are you trying to get the assembler to work with?
I just tried a project with MPLAB X v5.05, PIC16F18855 and selected mpasm v5.81.
No issues for me.

Hi Danno,
I can't get that far! My install will not find an assembler nor will it allow me to point to one.

Hmmm.. Yea seems something is broken. Seems when MPLAB X is installed non-standard, it can't find the tool chains.
What was the last version that did work?

Hi Danno,
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I did successfully install 5.05 and had it running for a while. However, due to circumstances I had to un-install it and then was when my attempt to re-install ran into this problem.

Maybe the user dir/cache needs to be erased/deleted

The help/about screen tells you where they are.
Just use Windows Explorer to delete all the files in those folders.

Did JN's suggestion to clear the Cache work?

When you re installed the original cache dir was re used with the original problems...
