Ok on old computer, delete the driver and shut down the computer into full power off.
Start computer and fresh install driver, then shut pc off again when finished installing.
Restart pc and try to connect. the driver can be problematic at times how ever if you have an arduino of usb>UART you can bypass the inbuilt adapter to program.

test with :

  • another cable (in 115200 or 921600 baud ) : not ok
  • another PC in Win10 and new install drivers + M5burner (in 115200 baud) : OK

i'm happy !

Step 2 - Try a new USBC lead,
Step 3 try a different computer.

I'm assuming that you are using a windows computer as it says Com31.
