Device Manager not picking up Nordic Boards

Hello,

I have been using Nordic for a while, Projects using nRF52832, nRF52833 and nRF52840, however I recently got a new laptop and device tree is unable to find my dev boards.

It is listed under Other devices -> BULK device

I have the latest JLink version, if I am using a custom nrf board with a standalone JLink, I am able to flash all my boards. However, only the development boards are unable to be found by the onboard JLink

Any idea how to debug this? 

Latest nRF Connect SDK, nRF command-line tools installed and in path.

  • Fixed,

    When re-installing J-Link, I've added support legacy, All working now. 

  • I am experiencing the same issue. How did you "added support legacy"? I do not see that option installing J-Link. Did you use 7.94e?

  • I was able to fix this by manually updating the driver

    The issue was driver failure solved with this article: https://wiki.segger.com/Incorrect_J-Link_USB_driver_installed

    Thanks Wes
