When connecting my Metro ESP-S2 widows add it inside "other devices" in Device manager but said that it do not find a driver. Then, in the "port" section, nothing show. The leds on the Metro shine nicely.
So, inside VsCode/PlatformIO, I cannot connect to it because it do not show as a new port.
I tried on a second PC and got the same problem inside widowns.
The Metro do not have a USB to serial IC, so I suppose I do not need to install an extra driver... but...
I have Windows 10 Pro 64 bits and do not have problem with my ESP8266 or Aduino Uno board. Anybody have an idea?
Thanks

Re: Metro ESP-S2 do not connect properly
See if you can get into ROM bootloader mode and get the same Device Manager entries as shown here:

Re: Metro ESP-S2 do not connect properly
Yes! I got into the boot loader mode and I can connectec to it via https://adafruit.github.io/Adafruit_WebSerial_ESPTool/
Now, where can I find the appropriate .bin file?
(TinyUF2 is definitely not the good things)

Re: Metro ESP-S2 do not connect properly
If you don't want to use the UF2 bootloader, then it depends on what you want to do.
How do you plan on using the Metro?

Re: Metro ESP-S2 do not connect properly
Yes I want to use de Metro ESP32-S2, but with VsCode and Platform IO in C++
I just need that it show up as a com port to program it via VsCode.
I do not want to use the Metro as a USB key nor with Python.
So.. where I can find the minimal .bin bootloader?

Re: Metro ESP-S2 do not connect properly
I solve it!
* I start in bootloader mode
* upload with Platform IO an ESP32-S2 empty project (wich fail by saying it cannot reset the module itself)
* I manually reset
* And now I see it as a COM9
* I retry uploading the same projet in normal mode and it worked great.
