The location combined with Kristins suggestion of specifying the family as UNKNOWN worked

Ok...I simply deleted the old nrfjprog and now it works! Thanks a mill guys!

Ah, thanks David...that makes sense. I did not assume that the actual nrfjprog tool version is the same as the tools package.

I have no idea where in eclipse to set this. The correct path is in my Environment PATH variable, yet, when I call nrfjprog from command prompt, it still calls it from the old location?! This is probably the problem hey? How do I fix this if it is correctly specified in the PATH variable?

You installed 9.5.0 but your eclipse is still using the old version. Make certain you use the version of the nrfjprog that you want.

It is complaining that it does not know the -f parameter, since 5.1.xxx did not know about 52 devices and there was no family parameter.

For what its worth, I changed the -f UNKNOWN to --family UNKNOWN (I just thought what the heck), it then continues on to give the same error for --sectorerase: ERROR: Invalid argument provided: --sectorerase

As a matter of fact, simply changing nrfjprog --program $< -f UNKNOWN --sectorerase to nrfjprog --program $< --sectorerase -f UNKNOWN in the makefile, throws the same error from -f to --sectorerase:

nrfjprog --program _build/nrf52840_xxaa.hex --sectorerase -f UNKNOWN

ERROR: Invalid argument provided: --sectorerase.

Hi Kristin

I installed the latest command line tools 9.5.0, by when typing nrfjprog --version, it returns with 5.1.4.44725

I made the change you suggested, but still get the error ERROR: Invalid argument provided: -f

Do you have version 9.5.0 of nrfjprog? In nrfjprog 9.5.0, automatic detection of the device's family has been added, for automatic detection, the family name "UNKNOWN" should be used:

nrfjprog --program _build/nrf52840_xxaa.hex  --sectorerase -f UNKNOWN

Could you check if that works?
