Has anyone been able to upload the simple Blink sketch to a Nano 33 IOT through VS Code? I have the Arduino IDE installed on my Surface Pro, VS Code with the Microsoft Arduino extension, and C/C++ extension.
It seems like I have tried all the Arduino command configurations to set the port, board, baud, etc... and I can get the sketch to verify but when I try to upload it just spins and never returns..?
When I try to open/close the Serial Port I get "Failed to open serial port COM6 due to error: + Error: Writing to COM port (GetOverlappedResult): Operation aborted
I can see the Port (port 6) in Windows Device Manager, also.
I have not been able to load anything in the new VS Code environment.
I have seen youtube videos where the Arduino IDE splash screen pops up as it is uploading. Mine doesn't do that... It just says uploading and doesn't budge.
I played with the Arduino extension settings, pointing the arduino.path to the Arduin.exe but that didn't help either. It is installed at the default location so that probably isn't the problem.
I also noticed that when I select my COM port it says "COM6 Microsoft" in other videos I have seen "COM6 Arduino" I am not sure of the meaning of that, yet.
“ To test out something a little less standard, I decided to try this out with an Arduino Nano Every and an Arduino Nano 33 IoT. As they are both relatively new boards―and I'd had some recent trouble connecting to one or both―I had my doubts about it being able to auto-connect. To my pleasant surprise, after plugging in the correct configuration for each board, they both came to life and obediently blinked away. Configuration info for a vast array of devices are available here; remember the name may be slightly different than you expect, so don't let that throw you—e.g., it lists a "NANO 33 IOT" instead of an "Arduino Nano 33 IoT".
When you need to use the serial monitor, it's available via a plug icon in the l”
