4. Plug the PCB in

5. Open Zadig

6. Click "List all Devices" in the Options menu
7. Select "STM32 BOOTLOADER" from the device dropdown
8. Select WinUSB from the Driver dropdown
9. Click the 'Replace Driver' Button
10. You should see a "Installing Driver" progress bar appear

Flashing

1. Download the proper firmware for your PCB

3. Change the filetype dropdown to ".bin" and select the proper firmware
4. Hit the "Flash" Button
5. At the end, you should see "File downloaded successfully"
