- Let’s learn how to fix USB not detected to computer or COM port is not working with NodeMCU ESP8266. Since there are two versions of NodeMCU, its possible sometimes windows could not recognize USB devices. Usually, this issue can be resolved by using good quality USB Cable and installing drivers of CH340 and CP2102 chip.

This was one of the few tutorials to show the entire process. Thank you!
You are so welcome Cheery!
Thank you so much, for the esp32 wroom 32e I was having trouble connecting it to arduino ide and by following this along with holding down the boot button while the arduino was connecting to the esp32 through the new port I was able to start working on my project through my personal laptop, thank you again!
2 days. I have been looking for 2 days. Well, after work anyway. Thank you so much:)
Hi Joshua,
Glad to know finally NodeMCU ESP8266 working
Good luck and best wishes!
that solved my problem ... thank you very much!!
KEEP UP THE VIDEO'S, YOU SAVED MY LIFE WITH THIS ❤
Thank you so much. Hope you enjoyed this NodeMCU ESP8266 video.
Good luck and best wishes!
Worked for me! Another thing that you could of mentioned, some boards will only work if you click upload on arduino, then wait for the "connecting......" to show up on the console, then you must immediately hold the bottom right button until you see stuff being written to it (in the micro usb port facing down orientation).
Thanks, for adding your suggestions and sharing experience. I hope other may find useful to work with NodeMCU ESP8266. Thanking you!
Wow thanks man! Both drivers didn't work work me but with the upload button... poof! suddenly it worked. Thanks!!
thank you, this was the fix I needed… installing the “CP210x_Windows_Drivers” for Windows 10.

Universal drivers are not useless, you need to right click on device in device manager and click update drivers and select that universal drivers folder so that it can pickup the drivers and install
thanks uncle muthu
thankyou sir this was really helpfull

Thankyou❤
Welcome!
thank you very much man i love you
Thank you Yiğit for such a wonderful words! It encourages
i did everything but i see the port as obscrated and it doesn't detect anything i tried with 3 different esp32 and 3 different usb cables
did u try another version of windows? maybe another laptop?
Can you write the code to load the esp 8266 circuit with the feature of getting the neighbor's wifi password?
i already install it but it dont show anything on my device manager please help me fix it and i already plug it to my laptops port but when i look at the device manager nothing shows up
Hi, please then try with other micro USB cable. Make sure the cable support data and power both. Usually, if you use micro usb cable which is only used for power. If drivers have installed properly then with good quality of USB cable your NodeMCU ESP8266 will surely recognize in device manager. Good luck and best wishes!
I'm not getting the other devices option in the device manager
Hi, please check if in device manager you can find Port Section. Sometime in some computer serial unknown serial devices will show up in ports section. if not then use other Micro USB cable and try again. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
i love you man
Thank you man!
I have tried both types of ESP8266 on Win 11 and followed the above instructions to the letter but still cannot get them to work.
hello sir
in my case node mcu is blinking for 1-2 sec only. it is not detected by laptop at all in com port. I've installed all the drivers properly. looking for your help. Thank you
That blinking of on-board LED on NodeMCU has no significance. Please do check device manager if you're NodeMCU ESP8266 got COM Port detected by laptop. If so then select right COM Port for NodeMCU while uploading code.
Thank u
Welcome
Livesaver!
Thank you! I hope this video have helped you resolved issue with NodeMCU ESP8266. Best wishes and have a wonderful day!
There is no other devices option in my laptop
I dont get the exclamation in device manager nor can the win 11 PC see the board com port. I can't connect to it. And yes I installed the CH341SER driver too 64 bit version . no joy.
Hi Adrian, please check with other high quality Micro USB cable. If still doesn't work then its possible that NodeMCU ESP8266 may have an issue. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES I’ve tried 3 cables now and I have 2 boards. None of this works.
do you understand the meaning of "not detected"?
try another usb port and also another usb cable because for me it was BOTH
No need to be an ass. Just leave your emotionally charged downvote no one can see, and go on to the next video like you were planning to do anyways.
@@jaxxrr did everything but the esp is not even showing that it is connected I switched with another esp and other one is detected with same cable and port
i installed all the drivers you mentioned but it shows that the drivers are pre installed and still the esp is not being detected
Hi Shreyas, in this case try with other Micro USB cable and make sure the cable support data and power both. Also it must be of good quality. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
in my case its not even detecting when plugged in, any idea what I can try
Hi Test T,
You can try with other Micro USB Cable to connect NodeMCU ESP8266 with Laptop. NOTE: Make sure the quality of cable will be good. I have seen some cheap and low quality USB cable also cause this issue if not OS of computer. Wish you good luck!
it is connected but i can't find ESP8266 Port and Libray in board or Library manager Some body help
I CANT FIND DOWNLOADED DRIVER IN PORT SECTION IN DEVICE MANAGER
Hey man i did everything shown in video and i did change cables 5 to 6 times the esp8266 is blinking then connect to laptop but its not being detected and when m uploading in it an error of saying smthing like error time out or no device connected(i.e esp)
I tried the rst button too flash one too
Even tried to upload the lower and stable version and also higher ones
The error is same
What problem is this do u have any solution?
Sorry, it seems like your NodeMCU is broken or clone. I can only guess!
hello mate, I have the same problem. Did you find any solution
@@shivammwarambhey5614 return it and purchase another one..
The quickest solution i found at the end of researching like maggot
I had the same problem but I choose another cable and then it works. You should make sure that your cable can transfer data.
How to reset the nodemcu.. Because my coding "hard resetting via rts pin" and my arduino IDE has no button reset method?
Hi Aqib
Usually, the RESET button can be found on NodeMCU board and not on Arduino IDE
but sir there is no other devices or ports option in my device manger please tell sir what to do
Hi Ankur, It means your NodeMCU ESP8266 is not able to recognized by your computer. Please make sure drivers are installed properly and use good quality of USB cable. Good luck and best wishes!
i tried the same procedure but communication port com 3 still shows a yellow sign n in ardeuino, port option is still greyed out..any other solution?
Hi Maddeha, you need to install drivers so that your NodeMCU ESP8266 module will get detected properly by laptop. I have made dedicated video where I have covered. Good luck and best wishes!
i have installed this but my node mcu esp 8266 modules blue light is not blinking, i mean it just flikered at the start when i connected it to my laptop but then the light was gone. but when i connected some other devices to it like an led light it gets switched on. pls help
Hi Gaurav, the blue LED don't light up or blink by default. There may be possibility on already some code running on your ESP8266. I would suggest please follow my programming NodeMCU ESP8266 tutorial and upload code and test. I think it will be fine. I hope this may help you. Wish you good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES exactly. this issue is sorted
When am clicking on board node mcu is not available?
Hi Vaishanavi, maybe your NodeMCU is not detected by computer. If drivers are installed then try and use other good quality USB cable. sometimes USB cable can cause issue because of power that it carry while ESP8266 connect to laptop. Good luck and best wishes!
i have installed the cp210x but that yellow sign is still there and i am faceing "A fatal esptool.py error occurred: Write timeout" error please help me to fix it
Hi Rohan, you can try with other microUSB cable of a good quality which support data as well as power. And also make sure your NodeMCU ESP8266 has CP210x not CH341 otherwise try other drivers as well. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES now problem is fixed thank you ☺️
My laptop and desktop cant see it at all. I have downloaded drivers and still no difference. Pls help
Please make sure to Install Windows drivers for CP2102 or CH341. Avoid installing Universal Drivers from their website. They seems to be not working these days. I hope this may help. Good luck and best wishes!
Sir Mera node mcu me light ek hi baar blink Hota he ..kya issue ho sakta he? Or connection sahi se nai ho pata:
Hi Khoka, your NodeMCU ESp8266 is not detecting properly. Try and install drivers and use quality USB cable. if in case micro USB become an issue. Good luck and best wishes!
No1❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
💚
No matter what I do, it keeps telling me that it has failed to start. Can you please help? I am getting very desperate. I am on windows 10, I have installed and tried every cp210x driver.
And also when I install the drivers, it does not automatically show up in the Device Manager. I have to press on "add legacy hardware" and then choose to manually add in the driver.
do you find a solution?
@@mashaelAlmohsen yeah, I changed the cables and it worked. It's because some cables don't have datalines and are purely for charging. I had a box of cables lying so I just kept on trying cables until I found one that worked
My LED does not turn on at all with 1 of them, my other 1 works flawlessly not sure whats going on, would appreciate any help - its not the cable :(
Hi Fadi, its possible by default your LED is OFF. Please try to upload the code in NodeMCU ESP8266 and test. LED status doesn't matter much.....
I need your help right now pls bro
It is not showing in the device manager also
Hi, please try with other good quality USB Cable which support data transfer as well as power. I hope it will work with new cable. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES ok
My node MCU is not getting power or detecting on pc Vai USB but when attache battery it turns on and I can upload programs also but without battery it doesn't work what can i do please help
Hi Shahid, will be happy to know which battery you are using to power-up ESP8266. I mean what is specification (mAH). If battery doesn't provide enough current then ESP8266 will not connect to WiFi. As device consume more power when connect to internet ans battery may not provide sufficient power.
I love u ummmmmmmmaaaa 😘❤️
THANK!!😅😅😅
Welcome Grimmy!
my esp 32 is not even showing the usb serial thing in device manager
Hi Vedant, make sure your firewall or other software is not blocking drivers to function properly. I recently seen such a case. Also, give it a try with good quality of USB cable. Good luck and best wishes!
@@BINARYUPDATES thanks bro the firewall was the issue i was searching for the solution for like a month now thank
Bro even in the device manager also it was not showing like serial port
same problem here
If I connect my Nodemcu to the port of my laptop using micro USB cable, it doesn't light the blue one. I don't know what is the problem
thats a faulty cable.
my windows 11 laptop still didn't detect any nodeMCU even after installing the drivers
Hi Ritesh, please try with other Micro USB Cable with good quality. Make sure ur USB cable support data transfer usually many only support power.
my esp8266 device is not detected by laptop at all. nothing shown in device manager. any suggestions pls
Hi Vishwanatha
Please try another good quality of Micro USB Cable. And make sure drivers are installed properly as per shown in this video. I hope this may help you to get NodeMCU ESP8266 detected by computer or laptop. Best wishes!
Same problem I got my node mcu from quartz components. N it's not even getting detected by my laptop, pc my friends laptop. I installed the drivers correctly
Same here.. did u find any solution
@@sushantmannolkar6020 turns out that my cable was only meant for charging . It doesn't transfer data. So check that once.
@@The_immortaL978 thanks

Bro still iam facing a problem bro from 2days still not solved pls suggest me a solution for this
Hi Siddarth, try with good quality USB Cable and make sure proper drivers are installed. USB Cable found to be issue in 90% cases otherwise try with other good quality NodeMCU ESP8266 in case you're module is broken for some reason while experimenting. Good luck and best wishes!
