Error message: Trying to connect 16 x 2 lcd to arduino nano

I followed the instructions in this: LCD Module: Connection to Arduino Board With and Without an I2C Module – Eldontronics: Electronics Hobbyist

and followed the "Direct connection" section and I'm just trying to display "HelloWord" using the example under the liquidcrystal library

I'm getting this error message:

Arduino: 1.8.9 (Windows Store 1.8.21.0) (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Nano, ATmega328P"

This report would have more information with

Genuine Arduino bought in 2018 or later? Or Older genuine Arduino or clone?

For the latter, select tools -> processor -> 328P (old bootloader). If that does not help, please enable verbose output during upload in file -> preferences and copy the output in a new reply.

Hey, thanks for the reply!

It's a clone. I tried using ATmega328P (Old Bootloader) but that also displayed the following

OK, that does not tell too much. Usually it gives a hint about what is wrong.

Next step is to get rid of the windows store version and install the normal IDE (current version 1.8.9) from https://www.arduino.cc/download_handler.php?f=/arduino-1.8.9-windows.exe.

The windows store version can exhibit strange behaviour and this might be part of it.

Question: is COM3 indeed the port that shows up in device manager when you connect the board to the PC?

I think ive seen other reports of this behavior with windows store version...

Yeah I got it working now when I changed the port from COM3 to COM8 which was the one that had the USB. Thanks for the help!
