Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Forum Index : Microcontroller and PC projects : Load RP2040 Firmware.

Try clicking on "Never for this device"
Then use the normal file manager

this is DROPBOX recognizing a new USB device and wanting to include it in its ecosystem. Just click "never for this device"
As Dropbox is recognizing the device, Windows Explorer or any other file system application will also see it as an additional drive letter. Open this new drive letter to copy a .uf2 file over to this new drive letter.
