This workflow saved 90% of previously "unrecoverable" SPI flashes in a forum user survey.
The update doesn’t scream for attention. It patiently adds 147 chips, refines erase algorithms, and protects your hardware from clones. For the embedded engineer, that is beautiful. Neo Programmer 2.1.0.19

Clones still work, but with reduced max VPP (locked to 15V) and slower algorithms. Controversial, but arguably protective. This workflow saved 90% of previously "unrecoverable" SPI
