Try using gimx-loader instead: https://backup.gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?t ... g_firmware

Make sure the wiring is correct. If it's not gimx-loader will fail to load the firmware.

The COM port not being here anymore suggest that firmware was correctly loaded.

However the wiring/soldering looks bad.
Remove the electrical tape and solder the green/yellow/blue wires directly on the pro micro board.
Also I can't be sure from the pictures but I think the tin quality is bad.
