Hi,

Some Arduino boards automatically switch to a different port for programming. The feather and the arduino leonardo are two examples.

So normally you select COM6 and Visual Micro sends a reboot message to the board then waits to see which port it comes up on. 

Visual Micro is detecting the board has rebooted and then hands over to the Adafruit tool chain asking it to upload your code using COM11. It is the tool chain that then reports it can not find COM11 and produces the message "No device found on COM11"

1)
Please try upload using the Arduino Ide to see if that works.

2)
Another thing to try is to double click the reset button to that the LED starts to pulse. You should then see that the board appears normally as (for example) COM11. Try to upload directly to the port to see if that works.

Thanks Tim, taking me a while to get back on the horse.

Got all of the drivers updated and selected the correct board and it is working now.

Great.

I noticed the debug wasn't working for the FeatherM0. Just published a new release with a fix.
