Yes

Describe the error
Whenever I try to upload the deauther code to my nodemcu board it just throws the same error that I show on the image

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\ariel\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\deauther\hardware\esp8266\2.7.5/tools/upload.py", line 65, in <module>
    esptool.main(cmdline)
  File "C:/Users/ariel/AppData/Local/Arduino15/packages/deauther/hardware/esp8266/2.7.5/tools/esptool\esptool.py", line 2890, in main
    esp.connect(args.before)
  File "C:/Users/ariel/AppData/Local/Arduino15/packages/deauther/hardware/esp8266/2.7.5/tools/esptool\esptool.py", line 483, in connect
    raise FatalError('Failed to connect to %s: %s' % (self.CHIP_NAME, last_error))
esptool.FatalError: Failed to connect to ESP8266: Timed out waiting for packet header
Failed uploading: uploading error: exit status 1

Expected behavior
Expected to flash correctly the board :(

Screenshots

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 11 Pro
• Browser Firefox
• Version idk (latest?)
• Hardware DIY

Attempts
I tried to update every neccesary driver from NodeMCU or ArduinoIDE and nothing seems to work.

Additional context
I read in a forum that it might be an hardware error and my board might be defective. Help guys :[

did you installed the correct board manger and select the board from that board manger?

and do you have anything connected to nodemcu? i mean in any of the GPIO's?
