I just set up MPLABX 5.35, MCSP5, and installed the PICKit4 as a custom programmer.
The only thing I changed was the commandline parameters
Code:
-TPPK4 -P$target-device$ -F$hex-filename$  -W3.3 -E -M -Y -OL -OB
(TPPK4=use generic tool PK4 instead of 'BUR serial no', W3.3=power target from PK4 @ 3.3V)
Those changes shouldn't matter much.
Using TPPK4 in MCS+5 worked even less in my case.


When you select 'Program' in MCSP, the command window opens and it takes a good 10 seconds before anything happens.
The command window opened and closed practically immediately, faster than when I used BUR; didn't have time to see anything.
