Hello

I am trying to flash the ESP but I get the following error. I really don't know what it could be.. I've tried to search it on Google but I can't find anything about it.. Could anybody help me?

What hardware and OS are you using?

[alain_kovacs2007]

I have actually solved the problem, somehow. I restarted my laptop and changed the usb port and it just worked.. I don't know what could have been the problem but whatever..

If you're referring to my laptop setup then I'm using win 10 Edu, hardware: HP laptop, i7, 8Gb ram..

Hmm, maybe a bad connection or a slightly instable driver then... Glad you got it solved, anyway.
