Hi. Just curious - I have been able to use 2 RP2040-Zero boards out of 4 as debug probes. For the 2 that didn't work, I was able to load the debug probe firmware but then when I disconnect and the reconnect USB cable, Windows doesn't recognise the device. The device does show up with a COM port in Device Manager just after loading the firmware but as soon as the USB cable is removed, it won't show up as a COM port anymore.
Just wondering if this was common? These boards are really cheap - just wondering if its poor quality control or a common issue that may have a fix?
I do own the official Pico Probe too but I cannot stand the thin wires and those tiny connectors on them. The RP2040-Zero is a better solution for me because it has USB-C.. I may just have to buy more from a different supplier.
