I don't know whether you'll have to switch or not. You can still try
mplabx, but it may take some effort to get everything going. You can turn
in a support ticket now, its just whether or not you want to spend the time

I always thought that the small tools used for PCB work (the ones with the
colored beads on the shaft) were made so that the back of the bead is a
