Programming the CH559 instructions

[siffland]

I was trying to program my CH559 following the instructions and kept getting the following error (note I installed the WHCISPStudio application and changed nothing, just selected the Object File 1).

19:36:08:325>> [#Dev0]Begin to download...
19:36:08:344>> Jump to BOOT from the user area,configuration bits cannot be modified!

19:36:08:359>> Verify CfgBitVal failure.
19:36:08:362>> Failed!

After trying multiple times (not changing things in the app, just reconnecting the board a few times on different USB ports on my computer, not like that would really help) and worrying I had something wrong I hit the following button "Restore Default Configuration" in the WHCISPStudio application and

19:36:33:250>> [#Dev0]Begin to download...

I have no idea why i had to restore default configuration on a new install with a blank chip, but I just wanted to report it in case anyone else got the error. Not sure if it is something that needs integrated into the instructions or if I am a one off issue.

Thanks,
