Troubleshooting • picotool cannot connect to device it found in bootsel mode

Trying to just do the basic examples from the pico SDK (https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/pico ... %2Cnull%5D) for my new pico2w from my Ubuntu desktop however the run command keeps failing with the same error:

Code:

Executing task: /home/mcunkelman/.pico-sdk/picotool/2.1.0/picotool/picotool load /home/mcunkelman/github/pico dev/blink4/blink/build/blink.elf -fx No accessible RP-series devices in BOOTSEL mode were found.but:RP2350 device at bus 6, address 4 appears to be in BOOTSEL mode, but picotool was unable to connect. Maybe try 'sudo' or check your    permissions. *  The terminal process "/home/mcunkelman/.pico-sdk/picotool/2.1.0/picotool/picotool 'load', '/home/mcunkelman/github/pico dev/blink4/blink/build/blink.elf', '-fx'" failed to launch (exit code: 249). 
I found a few posts on various forums that referenced the picotool.rules file needing to be moved, but a search of my computer returned no results. I also tried to drag and drop the .elf file into the device and that was rejected as not supported. So I am at a loss as to what I am doing wrong, or what the issue could be. I followed the setup steps in the sdk, including adding the extension to vscode and running the commands from there. It's a brand new pico2w.

Appreciate any help or advice on how to get a basic example working.
