CIRCUITPY is a USB drive. When you double-reset to get into the bootloader there should be a METROM4BOOT drive instead.

hi , yes i know that but its after putting CircuitPython on it, it should reboot as CIRCUITPY.
But it's not the case
Same with the Wippersnap it should appear as Wipper but not for me.
It's just USB drive (D:)

Re: CircuitPython Metro M4 Airlift lite Issue
Does CIRCUITPY mount if you reset the Metro?
Do you have anything running that would block the drive? Antivirus or such?

Re: CircuitPython Metro M4 Airlift lite Issue
OK. That looks like the CIRCUITPY drive. Can you put code onto it and have it run?

Re: CircuitPython Metro M4 Airlift lite Issue
Maybe it due to the beta ?

Re: CircuitPython Metro M4 Airlift lite Issue
I don't know about wippersnapper. Do you have the correct wippersnapper firmware installed successfully?
I don't know what that beta label is about. I've never had any issue with those boards.

Did you put the latest CircuitPython on the board?

Re: CircuitPython Metro M4 Airlift lite Issue
Try updating the bootloader. Instructions/links are at the bottom of that CircuitPython page.
