Hi,
I have followed the instructions given at https://rntlab.com/module-1/installing-the-esp32-board-in-arduino-ide-windows-instructions/
The “PORT” still grayed-out in Arduino IDE even  the  ESP32 CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers) was installed. I’m using windows 10 and my laptop comes with USB 3.1 port.

Thank you.

Hi,
Are you using an ESP32 with the CP210X chip?
Are you using a USB-C cable that has data wires? (For example, some USB cables from power banks only have power wires…).
Can you try with a different USB calbe and see if it works?
Thanks!
