The directory is not found as I tried to remove the build I accidently removed the whole directory.  
The aim was to start the build again due to a recent error at 2.10.

Unfortunately, the attached image is not clear, so I cannot see the problem.

Please try again and upload a full picture of the screen directly to this message.

I am also having a problem with the Python file. It’s the same error I was getting before. While trying to fix that, I deleted the whole file, but the error is still there.

The best approach here is to delete the content of the problematic files in the IDE, return to the point where the code was specified, and copy it.

Ensure you copy the code and paste it into the IDE (don’t paste it into the terminal).
