Hey again all!
An update!
I went through all the steps again on a different computer and had no problems whatsoever. I never had to do anything with the port; it just defaulted to COM1 and I was able to load a sketch into the tile without issue.
The computer that’s failing is a Microsoft Surface, whereas the one that worked is some unholy monstrosity I built myself. When I get some time I’ll mess with it. I have verified the USB port is functional, so it’s not like it’s just a basic hardware failure.
If anyone knows anything about this, it would help a ton! I’d rather do dev outside when fooling with stuff like this. It’s weird; I know.
Thanks again!
