Temporary solution for FW uploading in windows

[Gusev-Roman]

platformio.ini
[env:pico]
platform = raspberrypi
board = pico
framework = arduino
upload_protocol = mbed
upload_port = E:

platforms/raspberrypi/builder/main.py

`
if upload_protocol == "mbed":

upload_actions = [
    env.VerboseAction(env.AutodetectUploadPort, "Looking for upload disk..."),
    env.VerboseAction(env.UploadToDisk, "Uploading $SOURCE")
]`

must be replaced to

`
if upload_protocol == "mbed":

target_firm = join("$BUILD_DIR", "${PROGNAME}.uf2")	
env.Replace(
    UPLOADER="copy",
    UPLOADERFLAGS=target_firm,
    UPLOADCMD="$UPLOADER $UPLOADERFLAGS $UPLOAD_PORT >NUL")
upload_actions = [env.VerboseAction("$UPLOADCMD", "Uploading $SOURCE")]

`

now uploading works!..

Thanks, but now I have to unplug and hold the button. Is there any way to join both actions: forcing the board into bootsel from picotool and copying the file as you described?

upload_protocol = mbed UF2 upload is fixed by #36.

Once a firmware from the Arduino core has been uploaded, it accepts a 1200bps reset-to-bootloader through the USB Serial interface it creates. Just delete any upload_protocol = .. line from the platformio.ini after, it's the default protocol. You don't need to re-plug / reset your board manually.
