9.1 Troubleshooting: QMK Toolbox (Version 2022-07-01)

QMK Toolbox is the graphical interface for Windows and Mac. It is not compatible with Linux.

9.1.1 read error: The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.

Problem: You tried to flash with QMK Toolbox. It completed the flash, but the keyboard didn't get flashed with your new keymapping at all. You see an output similar to the following in QMK Toolbox.

avrdude.exe done. Thank you.

Possible Causes:

a. Another computer peripheral is interfering with QMK Toolbox. Try disconnecting anything connected to the computer except the keyboard. A computer peripheral is anything that physically connects to your computer, and includes: mouse, phone, cables, monitors, another keyboard, among others.
