Hi, not sure if this is the right place but I've been encouraged to post on tips to help the community with the most common problem when approaching the M5 bits. Here the first part I'm writing

Program Stick C via Ui Flow Desktop IDE 1.2.3
- Set the Stick C in USB mode (see below)
- Connect to your computer USB port
- Launch IDE
- Select the correspondent USB port from drop down menu of the pop-up menu (usually USBSerial)
- the status bar bottom left should show the USB port selected and in green the word 'connected'

soon as it starts press M5 button (button G37)

I have bought M5Stick C and managed to program it by using the Arduino IDE. Now I want to use also the Uiflow and for that, I have to set up the Wifi configuration, however, whenever I push the power button, the stick always run directly to the last Ardunio program I wrote. How to set the stick back to its original condition where we can set up the Wifi configuration for Uiflow ?

You need to download the M5Burner from here

Download the UIFlow firmware from inside M5Burner,
Set the device to Stick C,
Erase the Stick C,
Install UIFLow firmware for Stick C.Sorry no pictures as yet.
