RPI_PICO2_W

MicroPython version

MicroPython v1.25.0-preview.180.g495ce91ca on 2025-01-06; Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W with RP2350

Reproduction

1. copy the below threads using code and run it:

import time
import _thread

global killme

def threadtest():
    global killme
    print("Other starts")
    while True:
        if killme:
            break
        print("másik thread")
        time.sleep(3.17)
    print("Other ends")

killme = False

try:
    new_thread = _thread.start_new_thread(threadtest, ())
    print("Main starts")
    while True:
        print("Main thread")
        time.sleep(1)
except KeyboardInterrupt as theInterrupt:
    print("Main ends")
    killme = True

2. run it
3. stop it
4. try to copy or delete any file with mpremote, it will hang
5. powercycle (pull out the usb conenctor and back) and things will work until I run the above code again.

Expected behaviour

Expected to be able to upload code.

Observed behaviour

Was not able to upload code.

Additional Information

When I copied/ran non-threaded code, a simple hello world the problem did not happen.
