Instal MicroPython is not listed in Thonny

I followed the instructions to set the environment however I guess I could not put the Raspberry Pi Pico into USB mass storage device mode because I could not see the Install MicroPython option in Thonny. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi,

Make sure you put the Pico into bootloader mode.

To put the Raspberry Pi Pico into USB mass storage device mode, you need to activate its bootloader mode. This is usually done by holding down the BOOTSEL button (located on the Pico) while connecting it to your computer via USB.

While holding the BOOTSEL button, connect the Pico to your computer.

I was trying with some other cable other than box content. Apparently the issue was related to this because now I am able to see it.

Thanks Ensar!
