Drag and Drop to Flash

Is there a way or script to void the Drag and Drop operation ?

I would like to find a way to send the Bin to Board without drag and drop something like a program who senses a .bin presence and copy to Nucleo disk

Anybody already did that ?

I have seen way back people who did it, but don't know which script/program they used for it. In principle it is simply monitoring your download folder and moving it to the Nucleo disk.

One solution for Windows 7 is to make the NUCLEO virtual disk your default Download location: Open Windows Explorer and in the "Favorites" right click on the "Downloads". In the local menu click on "Open folder location". Then right click on "Download" folder and in the local menu click on "Properties". Navigate to the "Location" tab and type in the letter representing your virtual NUCLEO disk followed by a colon. Click OK. The system will ask you whether you want to move all the files from the old location to the new location. Answer "No". Once you finish with your mbed sessions remember to restore the default Donwload location the similar way.

Another way is to have the "bin" extension registered to a script which moves the file to the MBED. It does mean you have to select "run" after downloading though.

With some scripting you can even parse the filename to extract the target name and attempt to direct it to the appropriate destination.
