<p dir="auto">After about a week of intensive work, I have made some progress, but I am still encountering a problem where I need your help.</p>
<p dir="auto">Initially, my new M5StickC Plus2 didn't work.<br />
I initially used the recommended drivers from 2021/2022.</p>
<p dir="auto">After extensive research, I was finally able to find an up-to-date driver (2025).<br />
Manufacturer's website / exact link: <a href="https://www.wch-ic.com/downloads/CH343SER_ZIP.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">wch-ic.com</a></p>
<p dir="auto">Nevertheless, the message "Unknown device" remains in the device management.</p>
<p dir="auto">However, S/N, VID and PID are recognized.</p>
<p dir="auto">The old driver already caused errors in a test program: among other things, the device name was missing, and other error messages appeared. The test program is a password generator originally designed for the M5StickC Plus.<br />
was developed.</p>
<p dir="auto">GitHub link to the application: <a href="https://github.com/CraftzAdmin/PasswordManager" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">[GH - Craftz Password Manager].</a></p>
<p dir="auto">I may attach relevant files (error messages, screenshots, logs).<br />

I've already been able to solve many problems myself, but I'm stuck on the following point:</p>
<p dir="auto">Compilation error: expected ';' before 'sha256'</p>
<p dir="auto">I tried various approaches, e.g.:</p>
<ul>
<li>init SHA256</li>
<li>Init SHA256()</li>
<li>SHA256.sha256</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Unfortunately, these attempts were unsuccessful.</p>
<p dir="auto">I would be very grateful for suggestions or hints on what else I could test.</p>
<p dir="auto">Warmest greetings and best wishes for the new year 2025<br />
Chris</p>
