ESP32 upload error

Using Arduino Project Guidance
1

I use "ESP32-wroom-32D" in the Arduino IDE 2.1.0
I select tool>board>"esp32 dev module"
tool>port>"com5" this only one
I tried tool>upload speed>921600 change 115200
clicked boot and EN button

I got this error message on upload:

Hi, we met on the Discord channel of Wokwi.
Which board do you have ? Please give a link to where you bought it.
I suppose there is a CP2102 usb-serial chip on it.

The board could be faulty, I think there is a 50% chance that we can make it work.
Have you used other Arduino boards ? Do you have another ESP32 board ?
Which Operating System do you use ?

Please update the Arduino IDE to the newest version, bugs are fixed all the time.
https://www.arduino.cc/en/software

Then update all the boards and libraries as well.

Which board do you select from the menu ?
Can you tell which other options you choose in the menu ?

Have you tried an other USB cable and an other USB port on the computer ?

Ah,,Hi
I have ESP32-WROOM-32D
I don't have another ESP32 borad but have UNO and use win10
I selected board : "ESP32 Dev module" and tried "ESP32-WROOM-DA module"
change "upload speed : " 921600 > 115200 only
other cable not yet

The ESP32-WROOM-32D is the metal module on the board.
Which board do you have ?

Some boards are indeed called a "ESP32-WROOM-32D" board, but can you give a link to where you bought it.

There are more problems on this forum with Windows 10 :frowning_face:

ah,, bought 5th look like same that image

Why ?

7

actually I don't know
searching error someone say : change upload speed

The only problem I ever had with an ESP32 is with a cheap/crappy/thin USB cable.
These boards need solid power to do their magic.

I didn't try other cable
so just change other cable?

I just experienced upload errors with ESP8266 boards with unmarked serial chips.
Tried installing a CH34x...v3_4 driver from the net, and it worked.
Changed the IDE to an Uno board, to do some work.
Switched to an ESP8266 board a few days later, and it refused to connect.
Refused to install the same driver.
Uninstalling the driver, and re-installing did work.
Device manager shows a CD210x driver when working.
Win11 Pro.
