Description

I was using version 3.4.0 with great success (and old version for years).

Version 4 is just awesome, thanks.

But when batch flashing device, the Serial Port list is not refreshed (macOs ARM), on old version I was using the button Reload on each new device plug, today this feature is really missing, I need to close and re open app to get serial port refreshed.

Would be awesome to get this feature back :-)
