Qduino Mini : COM port not being found

Development Boards Other Microcontrollers
1

Good evening!

I bought a Qduino mini for a class project. I have found the board in my IDE and have Qduino Mini chosen as my board in the board manager. The computer does not seem to be able to find the port even when plugged in and turned on (lights flashing and everything). It only registers one COM port that I have verified has something else plugged in. I found the FAQs and information on the internet of how to find the driver in my C:// but that advice is 4 years old, and the information does not work on my current Windows computer running Windows 11 Pro. It cannot find a driver.

I have the code ready to go and everything seems to be set up right in the IDE. I have restarted my computer too. Any updated advice on getting the computer to recognize the board in a COM port and load the driver?

Thanks!

You might have to disable “Require Driver Signature” in your UEFI/BIOS, or find some other workaround for getting them to work (It should be similar, but not precisely, like the steps here https://www.hackster.io/team-qtechknow/ … _&offset=0 , but add-in the step to disable the requirement from Windows Bootloader)
