I have noticed that on Windows 11 there are problems with transmission to the ESP8266 and ESP32.
It looks like when I connect a new board, everything is OK, but after several connections, transmission becomes impossible and I can't do anything with this device. In the Device Manager, the USB port is visible, but neither the Arduino IDE nor ESP Flash Download Tools can establish a connection with the board.
When I connect this board to an old laptop with Win 10, it turns out that everything is OK and I can program it without any problems.
I wasn't sure whether the problem is on the hardware side (Lenovo IdeaPad-5) or on the OS side.
So I installed Windows 10, plugged in the non-working ESP8266 and after automatically installing the driver it turns out I can use it without any problem.
Then I put a new Win 11 on this laptop and after plugging in the non-working board it automatically installed the driver, but communication with this board is no longer established.
In both attempts I did not install the Arduino IDE, but used ESP Flash Download Tools to check connectivity. The boards use CH340 chips.
Has any colleagues encountered a similar problem and managed to solve it?
