in the device manager of windows i can find my PSoC board but i can't program it because the software don't find it.

Hi masi_4478906

Please follow these steps to manually bind driver software of KitProg from the PSoC Programmer installation directory.

1.     Right click on 'KitProg' and select 'Update Driver Software'.

2.     Select 'Browse my computer for driver software'.

3.     Select 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'.

4.     Click 'Next'.

5.     Click on 'Have Disk'. Please ensure that you do not miss this step.

6.     Browse and select the following file - C:\Program Files (x86)\Cypress\Programmer\drivers\KitProg2\KitProg2UART.inf

7.     After this, try 'Upgrade Firmware' in PSoC Programmer under 'Utilities' tab.

This might fix your issue. Also, please share a screenshot of PSoC Programmer when the device is connected if the issue persists.

Thanks and Regards,
