I assume this is on windows from the mos gui?
Are you just clicking the flash button?

Do you know if your device is operational in any way?

  • Are you able to see any serial comms coming from the device when powered up?
  • Have you attempted to flash from another tool like Arduino?

it was working couple hours ago, then we connect a LED and restart the device and we have this mistake.

no, i have not

something strange with COM port, i try to connect to serial port via Putty, but “Unable to open connection to COM15. Unable to open serial port”

Check if there are several instances of mos running and kill all of them.
