Why do you want to call it manually? I mean, I'm only ever using it inside VSCode with the PlatformIO extension that takes care of all that tedious setup.

I have not used it, so this is not from esptool experience, but isn't part of the answer in your screenshot? If you read backward from the bottom, the white text tells you what the issue is, and you can see what folder you're in on the last white line.

The darker coloured text indicates the actual path which may contain the esptool.py file. Also, there's a recommendation there to add it to your path (just click on the Windows icon and type 'environment variables' in the Windows search box to find that.

"I don't know weather that is the right way to erase the esp32 flash."

All I'm saying is that your screenshot is definitely the wrong way. If you're trying that, then you should be trying it in the folder where you actually installed the file (or add to your path and re-open a command prompt).

I wrote a blog, look for NodeMCU Firmware at NodeMCU Amica V2 road test - Hackster.io

Don't know exactly what you want to do. Do you need a bootloader?
