SOLVED: open your boards.txt file and add the code below...
(Windows 10 64 bit example)

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\m5stack\hardware\esp32\2.0.5
(you may need to make hidden folders visible in the top menu section under the view tab)
Open the boards.txt file
Scroll down to the m5stick-c-plus section of code listed. At the very bottom of this section add the lines:
m5stick-c-plus.menu.EraseFlash.none=Disabled
m5stick-c-plus.menu.EraseFlash.none.upload.erase_cmd=
m5stick-c-plus.menu.EraseFlash.all=Enabled
m5stick-c-plus.menu.EraseFlash.all.upload.erase_cmd=-e

Notice the way this is listed for other boards like the stick-c and do the same. You can now use the stick-c plus board listed in the Arduino IDE! You could also just use the stick-c board listed but I had errors in third-party programs.

Sorry for the repeat question, https://forum.m5stack.com/topic/4665/esptool-write_flash-error-argument-address-upload-erase_cmd-must-be-a-number/13

This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.
