      The install of the firmware upgrader in W10 failed:
      "An error occurred while trying to rename a file in the destination directory:
      MoveFile failed; code 5.
      Accés refusé."
      Note that the downloaded installer was executed as admin...
      Thanks for any help

        Hi @ropito,

        Could you tell me the version of your firmware upgrader? (you can find it on the first screen after opening it)

          Hi,
          Thanks for your concern.
          Actually I am afraid the problem was a w10 one, although it's the first time in my (long) life that I have troubles with a windows installer.
          I cleaned everything including windows register, restarted computer and installation of the firmware upgrader finally turned fine.
          This why I can tell you now the upgrader version is 1.15.1.
          I am now going a step further... and use it.
          BTW the doc about upgrading firmware does not mention using a USB-UART adapter, but only expansion boards. Hope there is no trap overthere: just connect G23 to ground ?
          Thanks
