Reset Arduino Micro? help plz

I was using an Arduino Micro to control the keyboard and the mouse, but now it is stuck.
Here are the upload error codes: Arduino: 1.8.12 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino Micro"

Sketch uses 3958 bytes (13%) of program storage space. Maximum is 28672 bytes.
Global variables use 149 bytes (5%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2411 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2560 bytes.

avrdude done. Thank you.

Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.
I tried plugging it back into the IDE on my laptop with USB, double-clicking the reset, then uploading a harmless sketch, however, it says there is an upload error.

I moved your topic to an appropriate forum category @drouckama.

In the future, please take some time to pick the forum category that best suits the subject of your topic. There is an "About the _____ category" topic at the top of each category that explains its purpose.

This is an important part of responsible forum usage, as explained in the "How to get the best out of this forum" guide. The guide contains a lot of other useful information. Please read it.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation
