Yes @Sentinel⛉ you will need to use appropriate software to send the desired code to the ESP32 S3, an Arduino IDE that's if you're using the Arduino environment for development or this ESP IDF when using the Espressif IoT Development Framework and some others tho depending on your specific setup. What software are you using and the type of code you want to upload

A simple google of that tells me you have a few hoops to jump through. I would advice to find out why the specific error is occuring. Then go through the list of items one by one.
