ST-LINK: Could not verify ST device

[MSZ1]

When "ST-LINK: Could not verify ST device!" error appears and what the mentioned verification process consists of? Can I influence verification process in STM32CubeIDE and how?

I have STM32 MCU, which gives me "ST-LINK: Could not verify ST device!" in STM32CubeIDE whatever i do (trust me, i did a lot). ST-LINK Utility can connect to this MCU without any problem, so I wanted to ask for more information about the famous verification, which doesn't let me to debug the MCU. Thank you.

Mostly this is to protect against counterfeit devices.

I've seen the ST-LINK DLL in Keil throw this on STM32G031 devices, but it may be reflective of an initial probing/capture of SWD connectivity. And if the MCU is in a cooperative state.

Perhaps make sure NRST is connected, and "Connect Under Reset" is used. Or the bus speed is dropped, especially for CM0(+) devices, which often work a lower speeds.

You've provided little actual context to understand your specific situation. Elaborate.
