AVRDUDESS is a GUI for AVRDUDE, a tool for programming Atmel microcontrollers.
Some key features:
- Supports all programmers and MCUs that AVRDUDE supports
- Supports presets, allowing you to change between devices and configurations quickly and easily
- Drag and drop files for easy uploading
- Automatically lists available COM ports
- Cross-platform with the use of Mono for Linux & Mac OS X

Requirements
Windows
Requires .NET Framework 2.0 SP1. On Windows 10 and maybe 8 and 8.1 you’ll probably get a prompt about installing .NET Framework 3.5 (which includes .NET 2.0), click install and it will do the rest for you.
If you get some other error message then you can download .NET 3.5 from here.
Linux & Mac OS X
Can be ran using Mono.
Has not been tested on OS X, but should work.
Installing on Ubuntu 18.04
Install Mono (this is the minimum required, you can use mono-complete for a full install):
sudo apt-get install libmono-system-windows-forms4.0-cil
On older versions of Ubuntu you might need to use libmono-winforms2.0-cil instead.
Install AVRDUDE and AVR-GCC (for avr-size):
sudo apt-get install avrdude gcc-avr
Run AVRDUDESS with mono, you might have to run as root (sudo) so that AVRDUDE can access ports if you haven’t changed any permissions or rules.d stuff:
mono avrdudess.exe

Hi Zak,
I use USBASP and I need to use PDI interface to write the ATXMEGA flash memory,
Here is the project and the patches:
https://github.com/siredmar/Usbasp_PDI/tree/master/SW
which can be used.
But I didn’t have success to add this to your wonderful tool AVRDUDESS. I’m sure that you have a lot of experience in this kind of things. So, do you think that can you find some time to add this patch to your AVRDUDESS in order to works also on PDI for ATXMEGA and USBASP?
Or if you find any solution here, it will be very helpful for me!
Many many thanks!

Hey Silviu, it’s not AVRDUDESS that needs to be updated for PDI support, but AVRDUDE (which is in the install location of AVRDUDESS) and the USBasp programmer firmware. It looks like the things you need can be downloaded from here https://gearfoxblog.wordpress.com/2016/05/29/usbasp-with-pdi/ (near the bottom), replace the avrdude.exe that comes with AVRDUDESS with the one from the link. I’ll also see about including the PDI stuff in avrdude in a future release.
Hi Zak,
I’ve just installed AVRDUDESS on a Win 10 x64 machine. I get the following errors:
ERROR: avrdude is missing!
ERROR: avrdude.conf is missing!
WARNING: Programmer ‘usbasp’ not found
WARNING: MCU ‘t85’ not found
avrdude and avrdude.conf are in the AVRDUDESS folder. usbasp programmer was in the usb port and driver correctly installed.
I suspect that the issue is that AVRDUDESS is installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\AVRDUDESS rather than C:\Program Files\AVRDUDESS? Is there any way to address this?
Thanks in advance,
Adam

Hey Adam, Program Files (x86) is the correct place since it’s a 32-bit application. It might be your anti-virus blocking it for some reason, try disabling it for a bit. If that doesn’t work try manually setting avrdude and avrdude.conf locations to “C:\Program Files (x86)\AVRDUDESS” in the Options dialog, also check to make sure avrdude.exe and avrdude.conf are actually in that location (they should have been installed there).
i scanned with immunet by clamav and found it as having Trojan down loader and deleted the file . can you fix program so that it is not detected as threat. i had to reinstall all the chain to get it working

Hey Jason, it would be best to report the false positive to the AV vendor. Alternatively you can try the .zip download instead of the .exe installer.
