Hi ! 

If you can't upload the design it means something is wrong with the adapter. I would ensure the wiring is correct (it's a common mistake to improperly connect TX and Rx : https://github.com/SHWotever/SimHub/wiki/Nextion-Display#wiring-nextion-display-using-an-usb-ttl)

On another hand make sure to install the drivers for your adapter chip.  Ft232rl drivers does not comes out of box on windows (but is often installed by many apps)

A last clue is that the screen is restarting, it should never happen as long as it stay connected, it feels like there could be a powering issue (defective usb TTL, bad cable, insufficient usb hub ...) 

In all cases if you can't get past the template upload (as described in the template install guide :Installing-an-'editor'-template) through the manufacturer editor, it means it won't work with simhub, so this needs to be solved before all. 

Let me know if it helped, 

Nicolas
