ATtiny85 upload on Sparkfun Tiny Programmer 11801 250502

Hello ETO forum,

Although the Tiny Programmer 11801 has been used successfully
a couple of times before, on Tuesday, April 29 after the sketch is compiled in Arduino IDE V 2.3.5,
when the sketch is sent to the Tiny Programmer the IDE returns:
"Failed programming: uploading error: exit status 1 "
The setup to sending the sketch is:
Win-11 USB port and the Ardino IDE set to Board: ATTiny…85, Processor: ATtiny85, Clock: Internal 1MHz and
Programmer: USasp (Attiny CoreBtiny)
After the setup at “Tools” at the “Sketch” tab the “Upload Using Programmer” option is chosen.
Have tried several times with same result.

At the Sparkfun forum it was suggested that the USBTinyISP programmer be used.

Tried selecting the USBTinyISP. It worked once then subsequent attempts to upload to
the Atttiny using Arduino IDE V 2.3.5, when the sketch is sent to the Tiny Programmer the IDE returns:
"Failed programming: uploading error: exit status 1 "

I have two Sparkfun Tiny Programmer 11801. Neither work.
Tried different ATtinies. Tried different ports. Tried different cables.
Tried plugging the Tiny Programmer directly into the USB on
the laptop. Tried different sketches like the Blink sketch in the
IDE Examples.
Attached is a screen shot of the set up at the Arduino IDE Tools tab.

Have tried running the Bootloader Result:
Error while burning the bootloader: Failed chip erase: uploading error: exit status 1

The various articles and tutorials like
have been scoured for hours but no solution can be found,

I am dead in the water until I can get the sketch uploaded to
the microcontroller.

Thanks.

Allen Pitts

Sure sounds like ATTINY bootloader hosed. You have a Nano or UNO board
you can config to burn it ? On web multiple posts on how to do this.

Is ATTINY a Chinese knockoff or a legit Atmel / Microchip part ?
 
There is a problem USBTinyISP the newer arduino ide is using pid and sid that have changed so a working USBTinyISP
becomes a non working programmer
 
The driver tells what you plugged in by pid and vid and arduino ide uses avrdude I was using 1.8 I updated it and the programmer list pid and vid and vendor don't match so my working before USBTinyISP didn't work any more.

You have lots of people making these and they like having a little part of them to look like they did something new the older avrdude worked the newer one don't like the name the usb is saying you plugged in
 
This has to match avrdude programmer txt
[60789.407535] usb 1-2.4: New USB device found, idVendor=16c0, idProduct=05dc, bcdDevice= 1.04
 
You might report that to Arduino IDE team, on their site. If this is trashing 10's
of thousands of these USB programmers they can code for multiple VID/PID.

This is nuts......

By the way when I saw PID in your original post I was thinking Proportional Integral
Differential controller, now understand the issue.
