Board Recognized but not Communicating

I really don't know what else to try, all I can say is its being recognized when its plugged in, always with the same com port (COM3) no matter what USB port I use, and I cant upload anything to it. Any ideas?

Ive tried the factory reset with the double pressing the restart button, which only temporarily fixes the issue, after it exists the bootloader it goes back to COM3

USB ports are not refereed by location. When the software on the computer enumerates the ports it assigns port numbers as it generally finds them. It does this each time a port is connected or disconnected. The software refers to them by logical number (COM ???) not name.

doesnt solve the problem though, Im just giving all Info I have

I have lots of ideas but for what? Maybe telling us what you have may help IE what computer operating system, which Arduino board, which IDE, etc.

Hello @niko_term,

Can you please copy and paste the Output when trying to upload a Blink sketch to your board? It may help to determine what is going on.

File > Examples > 01.Basics > Blink

Please, first activate the compile and upload verbose by going to File > Preferences > Settings > Show verbose output during: compile & upload

Thanks!
