If your NK65 is not detected by your computer, first, try this reset procedure:

  1. Unplug the USB.
  2. Press and hold the ESC key (top left)
  3. Plug USB while holding the ESC key.
  4. Wait 5 seconds.
  5. Unplug USB. Release ESC key.
  6. Wait 5 seconds.
  7. Plug USB back in.
If the keyboard is still not detected, try re-flashing with the correct firmware based on your PCB version by:
  • Open QMK Toolbox (if using a Windows computer, right click the bottom of the QMK window and select "install drivers" before proceeding)
  • Unplug the keyboard.
  • Press and hold the ESC key.
  • Plug the keyboard while holding the ESC key.
  • QMK toolbox should say in yellow that STM32 bootloader is detected.
  • At this point release the ESC key.
  • Press the flash button on QMK toolbox.
  • You should get a success message once complete

The firmware is available here: https://www.caniusevia.com/docs/download_firmware

v1.4 is for the latest releases of the NK65s. It will say "v14" on the PCB near the space bar area. If you are using an older version of the NK65 (v1 - v1.3) use the regular NK65_via.bin file.The latest version of the PCB will say "B v1.0" and you will need the B file for the firmware.

If you are using a Windows 10 computer, make sure your USB drivers are up to date in device manager as well.
