I bet you get sick of this, but I've looked at the other solutions and followed any advice, but no joy.
I am trying to use a Makerdiary nRF82540-MDK usb dongle to evaluate bluetooth (and yes I've now bought and am awaiting a couple of official NS nRF52840 usb dongles!)
When I try to connect the dongle I get the above error message and here is the log

According to Makerdiary https://wiki.makerdiary.com/nrf52840-mdk-usb-dongle/ nRFConnect | Programmer should work!!!
The device itself is working, I was able to flash the ada-fruit bootloader (as recommended in the Makerdiary docs) and load the Blinky app through the usb - and yes it flashes through all the colours of the led - yay. But no joy with your tool.
I appreciate that it isn't your dev board, but if you have any ideas I'd be grateful. Here is the system report
