Development Tools Uploading

Hi. I am trying to upload to my compiled project to my Arduino Uno, but it is saying "problem uploading to board"

The error message is below.

Arduino: 1.8.5 (Windows Store 1.8.10.0) (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"

Sketch uses 2148 bytes (6%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 19 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2029 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.
avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "\.\COM1": The system cannot find the file specified.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

Select the port of your Arduino from the Tools > Port menu. If that menu is grayed out or the port of your Arduino board is not shown then one of the following may be the cause:

  • You may need to install the driver for the USB-serial chip on your Arduino. Determine which chip is used on your Arduino and install the driver.
  • You may be using a charge-only or defective USB cable. Test your cable on another device to confirm that it works for data.
  • Using a USB 3.0 port on your computer may cause problems. Try a USB 2.0 port or use a USB 2.0 hub plugged into your USB 3.0 port.
