Description

win 10

I can only upload code when I plug in the pico while holding the bootsel button. If I then upload the exact same code again it will fail with "upload error 1" and no further information. So every time I need to replug the board while holding the button to upload anything

Also the Serial monitor does not show anything with a sketch that does nothing but open Serial connection and then print in a loop

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce on Windows 10 with a Raspberry Pi Pico, checking repeated uploads without BOOTSEL and serial output from the described sketch; done means uploads work repeatedly and the Serial monitor displays the sketch's output.
