*** [upload] Error 1 Issue on PlatformIO w/ Raspberry Pi Pico

I am using PlatformIO in VSCode working on a school project. I am trying to upload the code from my desktop to my Raspberry Pi Pico via USB. The code has uploaded many times before, but now it will not work. This issue is one that has popped up, I have had it previously able to upload. I changed some code since it has worked, but I don't see why that would prevent it from uploading. The code builds no issue. I am now just trying to upload a simple blink program as a test, but this is still failing.

I have swapped to just uploading a simple blink program instead of my larger project. I have uploaded python code using Thonny IDE, so I know it is being recognized by my pc and the cable is a good cable. The issue is somewhere within VSCode or platform IO, I think? This is the error output:

and here is the platformio config file:

upload_protocol = picotool

I tried today to solve this problem and my solution was to add the letter when you insert the Pico with BOOTSEL button pressed upload_port = E: in my case it's E:, then i additionally add the upload_protocol = mbed, this line in particular i get it from maxgerhardt in this PlatforIO thread. Hope it helps.
