can not find tinyusb

I've tried connecting to a gemma v2, and now recently the Flora. I even upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 to see if it would help. I think I have read and tried and downloaded every suggestion so far.

My board lights up green, red led is blinking nicely. I'm using a usb 2.0 I have tried every usb connector on the computer and every usb cord I have. My usb list in my device manager never changes to select and manually update a driver. I have rolled back the drivers. I have downloaded every driver. I'm really kinda shocked this is such a simple problem. Plug it in and it doesn't even communicate that a new device is present.

Help???

Want more?

The board is connected and green. Red led is flashing

if I tap the reset, the red led flashes slower for about 5 seconds.

still not reaching the board. I've downloaded so much, installed and updated. Seems odd I only have com1 option.

I'm having the same issue with a Gemma V.2

I set up this Gemma V.2 about 3 years ago with no problem. I'm now on Windows 10 and Arduino can't seem to find the Gemma V.2 board. I also tried using the Web version of the editor and the Gemma V.2 isn't an option when selecting boards.

Am I missing something? All drivers, libraries, etc. are installed as far as I can tell. Does the Gemma V.2 show up under a different name on the Web editor?

I didn't start a new thread since this one was relatively recent as far as issues go. Thanks in advance if anyone responds.

@DonutNinja

The boards list for CREATE is limited still.
They are adding more boards currently but it is a slow process as Arduino dont own the rights to many third party boards.

For your purpose you should concentrate on the desktop IDE.
