My Badger W will not show up in the shell box (at the bottom) or in the files box (bottom left). In addition, it will not show the words “RP2040 device” above the files box as it usually would, however it will show that the Badger is connected in the bottom right corner.
I tried putting “flash_nuke.uf2” on my Badger and then putting BadgerOS back on and it still had the same problem.
I even tried swapping USB ports on my computer. (I didn’t swap the cable because it is the cable that came with the badger and has worked before, so I know that it supports data)
Interesting. What kind of computer are you using? If you have a different one that you can try connecting from, it might help you identify whether the problem lies with the device or with your Thonny install.
It’s probably worth checking that you have the most recent version of Thonny installed. I’d also be going into the interpreter settings and check that it’s trying to talk to the correct serial device - could be that the auto-detection isn’t working?
