nRF52840DK not able to reset

[JStamwood]

I am trying to reset an nRF52840DK - it is visible within the nRF Connect SDK in Visual studio code but gives a timeout message:

[14:27:11] nrfutil-device reset --serial-number 001050267011 --json

[14:27:25] Error: One or more reset tasks failed:

 * 1050267011: Timed out waiting for response from worker. (Generic)

Hello,

What NCS version are you using? And what version of nRF Connect for VS Code are you using?

Can you please try to run the nrfutil command from a standalone CMD terminal?

If you haven't already, please download and install nrfutil from here:

https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-tools/nRF-Util

Make sure it is added to your environment path, and run the following commands:

nrfutil self-upgrade

nrfutil install device

nrfutil device reset

Does that work? If the issue was that nrfutil was not present in your environment path, does it work from nRF Connect for VS Code after you did the above steps?

Best regards,

Edvin
