Error uploading

When I try to upload the example servo knob code this error message pops up
Arduino: 1.8.12 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Uno"

Sketch uses 444 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.
An error occurred while uploading the sketch

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

pls help and note I'm new to this so.... I might be asking a dumb question

Please do this:

  • (In the Arduino IDE) File > Preferences
  • Uncheck the checkbox next to "Show verbose output during: compilation"
  • Check the checkbox next to "Show verbose output during: upload
  • Click "OK"
  • Sketch > Upload
  • After the upload fails, you'll see a button on the right side of the orange bar "Copy error messages" (or the icon that looks like two pieces of paper at the top right corner of the black console window in the Arduino Web Editor). Click that button.
  • In a forum reply here, click on the reply field.
  • Click the </> button on the forum toolbar. This will add the forum's code tags markup to your reply.
  • Press "Ctrl + V". This will paste the upload output between the code tags.
  • Move the cursor outside of the code tags before you add any additional text to your reply.

It came upto this and it was still uploading but it won't go any further.

This is the code I used. and the updated error message

If you're using a clone, chances are it uses the CH340 device driver. Do you know if it is installed on your system? If not, search "CH340 download" and download/install the driver. Also, some clones are using an older bootloader (I think the menu sequence is Tools --> Bootloader), so you might trying using the older bootloader. You will need to restart the system for the driver to take effect.

I installed that a while ago
