nRF Connect in Visual Studio Code won't run flash (nRF52833DK; works manually from Terminal)

[baspacc]

Hi,

I'm experiencing an odd behavior of nRF Connect in Visual Studio Code. Whenever I select "Flash" action, the "west flash" command is not being launched. Building works correctly. If I enter the west flash command manually in the Terminal, the binary file is uploaded properly. The device is visible, I'm able to talk to it via the serial interface. I had some issues after a few SDK updates and decided to run a clean install by following the tutorial (made sure everything is gone prior to the procedure). I'm using nRF Connect 1.9.1 SDK, nRF Connect for VS Code v2022.1.192. VSC 1.65.0 (x64). nRF52833 development kit. Any idea how to fix this?

Same problem here. Another workaround is to build then debug, as debug will flash the firwmare to the device. It is odd because few days ago "Flash" option worked and now it doesn't neither for me nor the rest of my team.

Edit: We are using nrf5340dk

Hello,

Yes, we are aware of the issue and are currently working on a solution. Current work-around is to downgrade to version 1.64.

Kind regards,
