- `Tools->Board->Arduino Leonardo`
In Arduino IDE you have to select board. In my case some reason "Arduino Leonardo" selections works better than "Arduino/Genuino Micro". With Leonardo-setting RX and TX leds are normally off and blinks when data is transfered to/from USB. With Micro-setting LED's are normally on and they blinks to off when data is transferring. Connect now your board ATmega32u4 through USB, the RX and TX leds should blink (if not, try another USB port).

### Using Arduino Leonardo in Windows with Arduino Leonardo VID/PID
On any other MS Windows platforms you may have to install the arduino drivers. To have the last updated ones, just download the file `Windows ZIP file for non admin install` from the page https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software. After the download, unzip the folder. Go to the `Computer` > right click > `Manage > Unknown devices` > right click > `Update software controller > Find on my computer > Search` > and try to find the folder `\arduino-1.6.xx\drivers` inside the folder you unziped before. Click `Next` and Windows should install the driver. Arduino would apper as the name `Arduino Leonardo` inside `Ports (COM and LPT)` with an associated COM port (like `COM9` for example).
