I bought a aliexpress arduino nano and I'm trying to upload a code.
I'm getting the following error:
"avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "\.\COM1": Access is denied.
Failed uploading: uploading error: exit status 1"
I tried different ports on my computer.
I have tried both the Atmega328P and Atmega328P(Old bootloader)
COM1 is hardly ever the Arduino board. Does it disappear when you disconnect the Nano?
Any yellow triangles in Windows device manager? Most clones use the CH340 TTL-to-USB converter and you need to install the driver for it. Download from the manufacturer's side; CH341SER.zip
