CPX and Windows 11
I just recently installed CPX Windows drivers onto my laptop to run CPX and the .uf files are still not recognized and I cannot find the Board drivers to configure the laptop to connect with the CPX for programming. Please advise.

Re: CPX and Windows 11
How are you trying to communicate with the CPX? Python or others? Do you see a drive when you plug the CPX in and what did you load (full file name)?

Re: CPX and Windows 11
I installed the Windows drivers package including: libusbK , libsubwin-32, VCP driver, Bus/D2XX driver, Silicon Ports.
The USB reads "CPLAYBOOT". I do a reset to green and drag Firmware into the CPX drive as instructed on : https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-cir ... de-org-csd .
According to the directions the CPX board should be ready to read/play code.org programs, but any files that I have with .uf2 are not recognized.
Those are the types of files in the CPX tutorials, so I would think that they should open in the CPX.
I continue to get a request for an app to open the files since my system does not know how to open the files.
I saw something about installing Board drivers. I though they automatically installed with the program install. I'm using his video to guide me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDa5FjnT9mw&t=300s

Re: CPX and Windows 11
I have the same problem. Dragging any UF2 file onto the CPX results in CPX never exiting the boot mode.
