    Unable to watch ASM30 symbols in MPLAB IDE 7.62

    MPLAB IDE Version - v7.62 Interim Release
    Tools affected - ASM30 (16-bit assembly code)

    We have recently identified a problem with MPLAB IDE 7.62 that can prevent the watch window from showing ASM30 file-scope symbols. These assembly-code symbols will not appear in the watch window's symbol drop-down list, and the watch window will display "Symbol not found" for manually entered symbols.

    A user experiencing this problem can download and install a corrected MPProgram.dll by following the instructions below.
    1. Close MPLAB IDE.
    2. Navigate to your [C:\Program Files\Microchip\MPLAB IDE\Core] or the corresponding folder on your system.
    3. Rename the existing MPProgram.dll to MPProgram762.dll.
    4. Rename the existing MPProgram.sig to MPProgram762.sig.
    5. Extract the new MPProgram.dll and MPProgram.sig to your
      [C:\Program Files\Microchip\MPLAB IDE\Core] folder.
    6. Restart MPLAB IDE.
    Install this patch if and only if you are experiencing this problem with MPLAB IDE 7.62.
