blinky isn't

[tylerca310]

How do I resolve/update:

zephyr-sdk is outdated. Found 0.16.5, but 0.16.8 is required by the SDK.

 python is outdated. Found 3.9.13, but 3.12.4 is required by the SDK.

Blinky isn't blinking

Thanks to your valuable help the prior issues are resolved

Now it looks like it is compiling but fatal-ing on the flash:

ERROR: No debuggers were discovered.

It seems to me like my nRF Connect needs some issue fixes - can you advise

How do I deactivate device protection?

Hi Scott,

In order to deactivate the device protection, you could try nrfjprog --recover, or as mentioned in the log:

Where should I get the missing software from?

You are trying "--recover" and not "nrfjprog--recover". Please try "nrfjprog --recover". This should help.
