do you understand the meaning of "not detected"?
try another usb port and also another usb cable because for me it was BOTH
No need to be an ass. Just leave your emotionally charged downvote no one can see, and go on to the next video like you were planning to do anyways.
@@jaxxrr did everything but the esp is not even showing that it is connected I switched with another esp and other one is detected with same cable and port
Ya I don't have these problems with cords or anything its always a driver issue
Hello sir, I have same problem with stm32f103c6t6 bluepill board. can you make the video to fix the issue
Hi AnandKumar, yes I'll be soon making video on setup and program STM32 Bluepill board. Best wishes!
Can you please share the driver folder link ? it is not available on the oem website
Universal drivers are not useless, you need to right click on device in device manager and click update drivers and select that universal drivers folder so that it can pickup the drivers and install
I have installed all the drives but am not able to find the port after installation also ?..any suggestions
Cable problem. use data cable which is used for phn
@@JamesCruz424 dude thanks , i am so dumb it was a charging only cable which i was using..
Livesaver!
Thank you! I hope this video have helped you resolved issue with NodeMCU ESP8266. Best wishes and have a wonderful day!
It's a wrong tutorial. If device is called as not recognised that means there is some issue with the communication basically happend due to hardware failure.
You can even experiment if you cut one of the data wire from USB port you will get this error.
This basically means the uart serial chip is fried or either the ESP is dead.
i did everything but i see the port as obscrated and it doesn't detect anything i tried with 3 different esp32 and 3 different usb cables
did u try another version of windows? maybe another laptop?
There is no other devices option in my laptop
If you don't see any COM port in device manager then make sure drivers are installed properly and try with other quality Micro USB cable. This may solve the issue. Best wishes!
dude Im so dumb even after knowing that cables that come with headphone, earphones and stuff are for charging and not data transfer, I never suspected that to be the problem. Used an Amazon basics cable and boom detected. My whole 5 Hours and 20 Minutes gone, pooof. Didnt learn shit.
THANK YOU FOR COMMENTING THIS OMG. imma buy that rn because i was looking at that as well
Thank you so much sir, I was looking for a video and then I finally found one that really helps.
I'am really thankful for this important video because I have prepared all steps even the Blynk app project but nothing goes because the computer didn't find the ESP8266 ! Thanks again
thanks G it worked super good!
Glad it helped! Have a fun with ESP8266. Best wishes!
This was one of the few tutorials to show the entire process. Thank you!
You are so welcome Cheery!
i already install it but it dont show anything on my device manager please help me fix it and i already plug it to my laptops port but when i look at the device manager nothing shows up
Hi, please then try with other micro USB cable. Make sure the cable support data and power both. Usually, if you use micro usb cable which is only used for power. If drivers have installed properly then with good quality of USB cable your NodeMCU ESP8266 will surely recognize in device manager. Good luck and best wishes!
but sir there is no other devices or ports option in my device manger please tell sir what to do
Hi Ankur, It means your NodeMCU ESP8266 is not able to recognized by your computer. Please make sure drivers are installed properly and use good quality of USB cable. Good luck and best wishes!
It is not showing in the device manager also
Hi, please try with other good quality USB Cable which support data transfer as well as power. I hope it will work with new cable. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES ok
Thank you so much!!! Really appreciate it!!!
I've been following your videos and I'm impressed with your expertise. I'm currently experiencing a CP210X Driver issue on Windows 11 with ESP32/ESP8266 boards, as discussed in this video (ruclips.net/video/wBKoxsV5pfY/видео.html). I believe you're the right person to help me out. I have four boards (2 -esp32 ,2 -esp8266) , all are facing the same issue, Could you please watch the video and suggest a solution? Thank you so much for your time and assistance.
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

Hi Alex, just make sure COM port selected properly in your Arduino IDE for ESP8266 NodeMCU. Check in your device manager to locate exact COM Port number. And then try to upload code once again! Good luck and best wishes!
Thankss a lottttttttttttttt mannnn , ive been scouring thru YT n finally this worked
much love
Welcome Kalyan😊 Happy to know finally your NodeMCU ESP8266 is working fine. Have a fun, cheers!
it is connected but i can't find ESP8266 Port and Libray in board or Library manager Some body help
It said when i clicked install that driver install failure what is the reason
thanks mate for the help
Bro even in the device manager also it was not showing like serial port
same problem here
Thank u sooo much bro thankkk u
I just bought esp8266 but it wasn't showing it all in com port but after finding 1000 of videos...u just save my hard earn money❤️❤️❤️❤️
my windows 11 laptop still didn't detect any nodeMCU even after installing the drivers
Hi Ritesh, please try with other Micro USB Cable with good quality. Make sure ur USB cable support data transfer usually many only support power.
No matter what I do, it keeps telling me that it has failed to start. Can you please help? I am getting very desperate. I am on windows 10, I have installed and tried every cp210x driver.
And also when I install the drivers, it does not automatically show up in the Device Manager. I have to press on "add legacy hardware" and then choose to manually add in the driver.
do you find a solution?
@@mashaelAlmohsen yeah, I changed the cables and it worked. It's because some cables don't have datalines and are purely for charging. I had a box of cables lying so I just kept on trying cables until I found one that worked
My laptop and desktop cant see it at all. I have downloaded drivers and still no difference. Pls help
Please make sure to Install Windows drivers for CP2102 or CH341. Avoid installing Universal Drivers from their website. They seems to be not working these days. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
YOU SAFED MY DAY!!! THANK YOU SO MCH😊 really!
Hi Moritz, Happy to hear that you enjoyed NodeMCU ESP8266 video lesson. Good luck and best wishes!
i love you man
Thank you man!
my esp8266 device is not detected by laptop at all. nothing shown in device manager. any suggestions pls
Hi Vishwanatha
Please try another good quality of Micro USB Cable. And make sure drivers are installed properly as per shown in this video. I hope this may help you to get NodeMCU ESP8266 detected by computer or laptop. Best wishes!
Same problem I got my node mcu from quartz components. N it's not even getting detected by my laptop, pc my friends laptop. I installed the drivers correctly
Same here.. did u find any solution
@@sushantmannolkar6020 turns out that my cable was only meant for charging . It doesn't transfer data. So check that once.
@@The_immortaL978 thanks
i have installed the cp210x but that yellow sign is still there and i am faceing "A fatal esptool.py error occurred: Write timeout" error please help me to fix it
Hi Rohan, you can try with other microUSB cable of a good quality which support data as well as power. And also make sure your NodeMCU ESP8266 has CP210x not CH341 otherwise try other drivers as well. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES now problem is fixed thank you ☺️
Thanks
Welcome Sourabh! Good luck and best wishes!
I need your help right now pls bro
Thank you
I have tried both types of ESP8266 on Win 11 and followed the above instructions to the letter but still cannot get them to work.
Port option is not there in device management any one say how to fix this
Hi Rabbunimerugumala, I suggest to install the drivers as shown in video and if it doesn't help then please try with other good quality microUSB cable. I'm sure it will help to get your NodeMCU ESP8266 detected in device manager. Good luck and best wishes!
i tried the same procedure but communication port com 3 still shows a yellow sign n in ardeuino, port option is still greyed out..any other solution?
Hi Maddeha, you need to install drivers so that your NodeMCU ESP8266 module will get detected properly by laptop. I have made dedicated video where I have covered. Good luck and best wishes!
When am clicking on board node mcu is not available?
Hi Vaishanavi, maybe your NodeMCU is not detected by computer. If drivers are installed then try and use other good quality USB cable. sometimes USB cable can cause issue because of power that it carry while ESP8266 connect to laptop. Good luck and best wishes!
I'm not getting the other devices option in the device manager
Hi, please check if in device manager you can find Port Section. Sometime in some computer serial unknown serial devices will show up in ports section. if not then use other Micro USB cable and try again. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
what if i have driver but still same error pls help 😭😭😭
In this case, please try with other good quality MicroUSB cable. Sometimes MicroUSB cable may only provide power but no data transmission which cause an issue. I wish you good luck and best wishes!
i have cable with data transimssion and i tried 2 different cables and nothing@@BINARYUPDATES
Thank you. My problem is solved.❤
Glad it helped!
Sir Mera node mcu me light ek hi baar blink Hota he ..kya issue ho sakta he? Or connection sahi se nai ho pata:
Hi Khoka, your NodeMCU ESp8266 is not detecting properly. Try and install drivers and use quality USB cable. if in case micro USB become an issue. Good luck and best wishes!
My node MCU is not getting power or detecting on pc Vai USB but when attache battery it turns on and I can upload programs also but without battery it doesn't work what can i do please help
Hi Shahid, will be happy to know which battery you are using to power-up ESP8266. I mean what is specification (mAH). If battery doesn't provide enough current then ESP8266 will not connect to WiFi. As device consume more power when connect to internet ans battery may not provide sufficient power.
My LED does not turn on at all with 1 of them, my other 1 works flawlessly not sure whats going on, would appreciate any help - its not the cable :(
Hi Fadi, its possible by default your LED is OFF. Please try to upload the code in NodeMCU ESP8266 and test. LED status doesn't matter much.....
If I connect my Nodemcu to the port of my laptop using micro USB cable, it doesn't light the blue one. I don't know what is the problem
thats a faulty cable.
Thank you man!
Thank you very much. It works for me. :)
Works
thank you it works
could be the cable, for me it was
Very often I seen Cable an issue with NodeMCU ES8P266
Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES it's more about what the cable can do, if it only transfers power it won't work so use one that transfers data

my esp 32 is not even showing the usb serial thing in device manager
Hi Vedant, make sure your firewall or other software is not blocking drivers to function properly. I recently seen such a case. Also, give it a try with good quality of USB cable. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES thanks bro the firewall was the issue i was searching for the solution for like a month now thank
I CANT FIND DOWNLOADED DRIVER IN PORT SECTION IN DEVICE MANAGER
Bro i tried but cant even see Ports in Device manager
Hi JuniorUltimate, please try with other good quality MicroUSB cable and also make sure drivers are installed properly so that windows can detect the NodeMCU ESP8266. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!

Bro still iam facing a problem bro from 2days still not solved pls suggest me a solution for this
Hi Siddarth, try with good quality USB Cable and make sure proper drivers are installed. USB Cable found to be issue in 90% cases otherwise try with other good quality NodeMCU ESP8266 in case you're module is broken for some reason while experimenting. Good luck and best wishes!
Thankyou very much
Most welcome!
i installed all the drivers you mentioned but it shows that the drivers are pre installed and still the esp is not being detected
Hi Shreyas, in this case try with other Micro USB cable and make sure the cable support data and power both. Also it must be of good quality. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
2 days. I have been looking for 2 days. Well, after work anyway. Thank you so much:)
Hi Joshua,
Glad to know finally NodeMCU ESP8266 working

duude u r a life saver
Thank you so much Joe! Have a beautiful day!
i have installed this but my node mcu esp 8266 modules blue light is not blinking, i mean it just flikered at the start when i connected it to my laptop but then the light was gone. but when i connected some other devices to it like an led light it gets switched on. pls help
Hi Gaurav, the blue LED don't light up or blink by default. There may be possibility on already some code running on your ESP8266. I would suggest please follow my programming NodeMCU ESP8266 tutorial and upload code and test. I think it will be fine. I hope this may help you. Wish you good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES exactly. this issue is sorted
Thanks bro it worked 👍❤❤❤
Congratulations Bro!
@@BINARYUPDATES that was too long time in reply 😁
really unsafe to download driv from unknow sites
Hi Aldo, you can use official webpage to download drivers for CH340 chip www.wch-ic.com/products/CH340.html?from=list .
When I recorded this video for NodeMCU ESP8266 this website was in Chinese language for I shown alternate. Thanks and best wishes!
Totally agree, we unpack and inspect all drivers on the site before linking/uploading them to the site. We built the site because we are technicians that are tired of malware.
it worked thank you!
Hi John, Great!

How to reset the nodemcu.. Because my coding "hard resetting via rts pin" and my arduino IDE has no button reset method?
Hi Aqib
Usually, the RESET button can be found on NodeMCU board and not on Arduino IDE
Thank you so much, for the esp32 wroom 32e I was having trouble connecting it to arduino ide and by following this along with holding down the boot button while the arduino was connecting to the esp32 through the new port I was able to start working on my project through my personal laptop, thank you again!

Hi Alfredo, thanks!
hello sir
in my case node mcu is blinking for 1-2 sec only. it is not detected by laptop at all in com port. I've installed all the drivers properly. looking for your help. Thank you
That blinking of on-board LED on NodeMCU has no significance. Please do check device manager if you're NodeMCU ESP8266 got COM Port detected by laptop. If so then select right COM Port for NodeMCU while uploading code.
💚
It work nice
Glad to hear it worked. Best wishes!
I love u ummmmmmmmaaaa 😘❤️
Thank yo very much for this kind of information, please make video on home automation using alexa and Google.
luv you! ty so much it finally worked
You're welcome!
in my case its not even detecting when plugged in, any idea what I can try
Hi Test T,
You can try with other Micro USB Cable to connect NodeMCU ESP8266 with Laptop. NOTE: Make sure the quality of cable will be good. I have seen some cheap and low quality USB cable also cause this issue if not OS of computer. Wish you good luck!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. u saved my life ong
Glad it helped!
Edit: Turns out it was the driver causing the issue! I needed to use the 3.5.2019.1 version instead of the 3.8.2023.2 one. Now they work good.
I can't get 2 different ESP8266 To connect at all. I've tried different drivers and still, it wont connect to it in Arduino IDE. Different data cables / regular ones and nothing works. Not really sure what's going on unless, both the boards are bad. A third ESP8266 does work fine though! (Uses the CP210x driver).
The one that works says Node MCU on the back while, the 2 others says ESP8266 and the boards are bigger. Very frustrating! The other boards pup up as the CH340 driver. I just don't understand what's going on. Tried multiple drivers that I could find from tutorials.
THANKYOU MATE❤😊
Hi Nikhil, you're welcome!
Thank you, but it didn´t work ;-) After I´ve changed the USB Cable it was running. Crazy
Hi Buba, Glad it helped. Usually 90 percent cases USB Cable is reason
Enjoy programming NodeMCU ESP8266
Good luck and best wishes!
Sir someone please help me out,🙏 i am new to this field, i took nodemcu first ,it was ch340 driver,i tried all possible drivers, the only thing that was coming is that there are no suitable drivers for device, then i took cp2102 nodemcu, again today i tried all possible drivers, still same error is coming,i have windows 11, installing windows 11 was the worst decision in my life,i tried going to advanced option to check if windows had its own driver, that told there are no drivers for this device, even though i give the location of driver it still comes no suitable driver found.i have to submit project in this is few days, any help is very appreciated.
Hi Karthik, please make sure you've used good quality of micro USB Cable. I've seen because of usb cable used for power or charging. Sometime NodeMCU ESP8266 doesn't detect to laptop. I hope changing Micro USB Cable may help you. Good luck!
@@BINARYUPDATES it worked for me only on 2 cables out of 5 tested :)
You ever fix this? I am having the same issue. Works fine on windows 10.
Not detected in other devices. What I do?
Hi Amritpal. try with other good quality of MicroUSB cable (make sure branded cable used) with drivers installed on your laptop or computer. Good luck!
