 I am trying to flash some Zigbee related code to experiment with creating DIY smart devices (specifically Zigbee and matter ones) using my Arduino nano 33 BLE. One problem I&amp;#39;m having though is that supposedly windows doesn&amp;#39;t support the &amp;quot;Bossac</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 12 Aug 2021 11:15:44 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/78490/nrf-connect-sdk-flashing-on-windows" /><item><title>RE: nRF Connect SDK flashing on windows</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/324647?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 12 Aug 2021 11:15:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:3fd35a3c-985d-4e0a-ac5d-0eaccc21a260</guid><dc:creator>&amp;#216;yvind</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello,&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m not familiar with TinyGo, and can not answer on that. Regarding bossac runner, this sounds like a &lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/zephyr/introduction/index.html#community-support"&gt;qustion for the Zephyr Community&lt;/a&gt;. In the &lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/zephyr/boards/arm/arduino_nano_33_ble/doc/index.html#programming-and-debugging"&gt;Arduino Nano 33 BLE board page&lt;/a&gt;, it states:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;pre class="ui-code" data-mode="text"&gt;This board requires the Arduino variant of bossac. You will not be able to flash with the bossac included with the zephyr-sdk, or using shumatech’s mainline build.

You can get this variant of bossac with one of two ways:

Building the binary from the Arduino source tree

Downloading the Arduino IDE

Install the board support package within the IDE

Change your IDE preferences to provide verbose logging

Build and flash a sample application, and read the logs to figure out where Arduino stored bossac.

Once you have a path to bossac, you can pass it as an argument to west:

west flash --bossac=&amp;quot;&amp;lt;path to the arduino version of bossac&amp;gt;&amp;quot;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
