Arduino nano rp2040 connect - not shown on any port

Im using an original arduino nano rp2040 connect for simple projects. It was working fine with projects such as using a KY-038 sound sensor and using the BLE module.

After i uploaded a code from tinkercad to the nano it uploaded the code but then it stopped showing on any port after i disconnected it and connect it again via usb.

I have tried:
- disconnecting it, pressing the reset button, connecting it to pc, then trying to upload the blink schedule. (doesn't work as it doesn't appear in any port or similar.)
- checked the device manager to try update the drivers and it says that it has all correct drivers (On device manager says "Unkown USB Device (Device descriptor request failed))"
- double pressing the rest button

The red led on the board is blinking.

The code is the following:

#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>

#define PIN 2	 // input pin Neopixel is attached to

#define NUMPIXELS      12 // number of neopixels in strip

Adafruit_NeoPixel pixels = Adafruit_NeoPixel(NUMPIXELS, PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);

int delayval = 100; // timing delay in milliseconds

int redColor = 0;
int greenColor = 0;
int blueColor = 0;

void setup() {
  // Initialize the NeoPixel library.
  pixels.begin();
}

void loop() {
  setColor();

  for (int i=0; i < NUMPIXELS; i++) {
    // pixels.Color takes RGB values, from 0,0,0 up to 255,255,255
    pixels.setPixelColor(i, pixels.Color(redColor, greenColor, blueColor));

    // This sends the updated pixel color to the hardware.
    pixels.show();

    // Delay for a period of time (in milliseconds).
    delay(delayval);
  }
}

// setColor()
// picks random values to set for RGB
void setColor(){
  redColor = random(0, 255);
  greenColor = random(0,255);
  blueColor = random(0, 255);
}

Please, help me

This posting on the forum may help to solve your problems.

Just look at post #6 by Dozie.

Thank you so much!! For real.

The solution from the post you told sent me to this link to reset the firmware and worked like a charmed!
