Arduino Pro Micro Clone Identifing as an Arduino Leonardo in device manager

Development Tools IDE 1.x

i just bought an arduino pro micro clone from amazon it turns out it was from a website called diymore.cc
this is my first arduino so i didnt really know how to set it up but i though it was ready to go out of the box because its an ATMEGA32U4 but i dug around for some drivers and found sparkfun drivers i downloaded and installed them and then the arduino came up on the device manager but i noticed now that it was mis-identifing

Its and arduino pro micro 5v 16mhz CLONE just so you know

Thanks in advance Isaac :smiley:

No personal experience with the Pro Micro; it's however my understanding, from all the forum threads that I have been following, that the fact that it identifies itself as a Leonardo is no problem.

By the looks of it, you installed Sparkfun's board package, not the drivers.

You should be able to just use Boards -> Leonardo and it should work. Try to upload a simple sketch like blink and report back.
