I follower these instructions: https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Getting_Started_with_Seeeduino/
It suggests using the Arduino Environment and to install the Seeeduino Driver.
I was able to upload the blink program (“Hello World”) and it is running fine; however, I wanted to check if I could make it blink faster. I made the changes to the program, compiled it and tried to uploaded it. But now I am getting “An error occurred while uploading the sketch”. This is the full report:

Do I need to reset something on the XIAO to get the updated program to upload? And do all pins need to be free of any connections to have a successful upload?
Thank you
