Sorry if this is a basic question but struggling a little. I running Arduino 2.1.1 and have developed an application that successfully uploads and runs on Raspberry Pico using the IDE. What I need to do is understand and find a way to upload the .uf2 to the Pico so that it auto runs when the power is applied to the Pico and not connected to a PC.
That should be part of the normal "upload code." Once you've uploaded to the Pico, it is stored in flash, and the sketch should run when you power up the board, whether or not a PC is connected.
(Unless you hold down the boot button during poweron.)
That was my assumption and I've done further tests and it's very strange, if I load the example Blink app it works as expected and starts when powered on. If I then do the same with my own application using exactly the same cables my app fails to run when powered up.
