New Arduino IDE doesn't remember port making it impossible to unbrick Pro Micro using it

[xCuri0]

I tried following this guide https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/pro-micro--fio-v3-hookup-guide/troubleshooting-and-faq#ts-revive using the new Arduino IDE and it was impossible because pressing CTRL + U didn't work with no port and selecting the port and pressing CTRL+U takes too long. I was only able to do it using the old Arduino IDE and resetting after I press CTRL + U

Hi @xCuri0 . Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue.

I see we have another report about this at #2089.

That bug has already been fixed:

• Interpret "empty" gRPC Port object as no-port in upload arduino-cli#2202
• fix: omit port from upload request when not set #2090

I guess you are still experiencing the problem because the fix was made after the latest release. Please try the latest nightly build of Arduino IDE. The download links are listed here:
