TB16 Firmware update. --- return 0x205
Hi,
I'm using xps9310 with a TB16 dock. I want to perform a firmware update for TB16 with utility 01.00.04.
I have tried servel workarounds found from the forum, using local account, disconnect all devices, but without success.
This is the log that I got with the firmware update utility.
i got error information as:
Attempting Dock NVM executable firmware update
Executing: C:\Users\abcdef\AppData\Local\Temp\66082c6e-81f5-4df1-8286-f56200b49d4e\DCH\FWUpdateCmd.exe UpBme C:\Users\abcdef\AppData\Local\Temp\66082c6e-81f5-4df1-8286-f56200b49d4e\BME.bin

and this is screenshot of firmware update utility.

You may need a specific/older Thunderbolt Controller Driver version to be able to update the TB16 firmware.
