What does Windows device manager say about the device when you plug it in? Any yellow exclamation marks?

What are the VID and the PID; in case you don't know how to find them, see [Cannot upload to my brand-new Arduino Nano - #12 by sterretje](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/cannot-upload-to-my-brand-new-arduino-nano/867702/12) to find them.

If Windows device manager does not see the board at all, you might have a bad cable or it might not have been inserted properly at one or both sides.
