Can you test using the current build from https://td-er.nl/ESPEasy/latest/ ?
This is based on a newer Arduino/IDF framework, and has many improvements since the last official release version.

Maybe even more important: The GPIO may not be connected to the WS2812 😲
This comment shows how to detect and fix that.

[tonhuisman]

OTOH, For ESP32-S3 there have been breaking changes in the RMT implementation since IDF 5.x, that may also cause this.
I'll see what I can do about that (it's an item on the TODO list, but hasn't got attention yet 🫣)

[HarryHase4]

latest also not working, but in the latest it is possible to delete the task.
donwgrade to the christmas version -> dircetly up and running. (so i "guess" the gpio is correct)

[TD-er]

You can work with NeoPixel on ESP32-S3 when using a build without PSRAM

[HarryHase4]

I will test (i can also work with the older Version), it is only a notification light for the camper ... (( ;) tim))

tested; without PSRAM Version are running, but also problem with deleting a doublicated neopixel basic task

[TD-er]

deleting should still work.
Can you also try to disable the task first and then try to delete it?
You can use the command taskdisable,N with N being the task index. (via the command line on the tools page, or via serial/USB terminal)

And if this doesn't work, please try with both/all of those tasks disabled.
N.B. the taskdisable and taskenable commands will not save that state, however if you then remove the task via the task setup page, the settings as they are in memory will get saved.
