@cmcrrr Maybe the Nemo hacking software hacked you?
This happens so often I am starting to suspect that Nemo has itself been hacked.
You should contact the wider Nemo hacking community. and see any fellow hackers are experience this problem.

@cmcrrr can you try to use M5Burner and go for ERASE before burn? Or just try to load EasyLoader file for M5Stack? or just load siple sketch from Arduino?

Hello @cmcrrr

you might want to force M5StickCPlus2 into download mode manually. Below are the steps:

1. disconnect USB
2. press and hold PWR button until green LED lights up, then release button
3. connect a wire from G0 to GND
4. attach USB
5. press and hold PWR button until green LED lights up, then release button
6. remove wire
   --> M5StickCPlus2 is now in download mode.
7. Use M5Burner to erase or flash something.

Thanks
Felix

@felmue what do you mean "connect wire from G0 to GND"?
