I was getting this error and did a fresh install. now I'm getting ESPAsyncTCP error. I know I am missing something I need to install. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Well hard to help, probably one ore more packages not properly installed. Or if you made a new install the IDE cache prevents to fix the issue.
You should try to properly removed all cache files form the ide.

And where is that cache located?
