	Thanks for your fast replay! If I upload other sketches, not using that library DS1307RTC , I don't have any problem both with Visual Micro and with Arduino IDE! This should means that the USB interface and the drivers are OK! This issue is strictly related to that library and to the platform ESP8266. The ESP8266 core github site advise to use another Real Time Clock library to avoid conflicts with core/time.c ! But using 1.6.5 IDE I don't have any conflict and RTC1307RTC is a much widely used and complete library.

	I have found the code inside the library that generate the problem : The DS1307RTC.cpp at the end contain the statement: DS1307RTC RTC = DS1307RTC(); // create an instance for the user If I delete the statement from library code and I put it as a normal declaration at the beginning of the .ino file it run like a charm!! But don't ask me why!? Why this can be done in IDE 1.6.5 and not with VisualMicro???

	Useful thanks. I will look at the difference between arduino and visual micro. Are you using a standard DS130RTC example? Which one?

	I used ReadTest.ino : moved declaration from .cpp to .ino!! It works and it is an easy fix!! To have an instance declaration inside the library is unusual.... but.... Let me know if you find the reason of those problems! Anyhow I can move ahead!
