A PSOC Edge example fails to program with a probe or tool-version error. What is a sensible first check that preserves the current device configuration and avoids treating every connection failure as a damaged MCU?

#2Identify the exact kit revision, selected BSP, programming interface and probe firmware. Compare them with the getting-started guide's prerequisites. A missing device interface or incompatible probe version can fail before the target application image is even considered.

#3Check USB enumeration, target power and whether another debug session owns the probe. Use the documented programming workflow for that kit. Do not change provisioning, lifecycle or protection settings just to see whether the error disappears; those settings have separate consequences.

#4Capture the complete first error and reproduce with a supported minimal example. If a documented probe update is required, follow that procedure and record the resulting version. Keep recovery actions tied to the actual error instead of beginning with a mass erase.
