  1. My desk top with windows 11  warned me about opening this zip file. I am pretty much computer illiterate so I didn't open it. I bought a cheap laptop with windows 11 and used it instead. It worked fine. There is probably a better solution but as I said I am not computer savvy.

    I went ahead and updated to V 071. It was the first time I have updated since getting the D2 with the Jan 2022 V 0.6 installed. 

    I was careful follow the prompts in the update program and not to plug in the USB cable until instructed to do so. Strangely enough, it would not start the update download procedure after plugging into the USB2 port on my computer, it would just hang at the last graphic screen (11/11) of the update program.. I tried it twice after backing out of the update program, unplugging the USB cable, shutting down the remote, and starting the whole procedure over again.

    On the third try, I plugged into one of the USB2 auxillary ports on the front of my connected external hard drive instead of the USB2 ports on my computer and it worked fine for both the remote and the WS6. I use the computer's ports all the time and they work fine for other things, but they just wouldn't work for the update program for some reason. Maybe it was a glitch, but it's done and everything seems to be working fine.

    I did wait for the update to complete, displaying Success, and then waited for the remote to cycle through auto restart and bring up the boot screen and regular operating screen before disconnecting the USB cable. I don't know if that would prevent the lock up of the remote reported by a couple of people, but it might, so be patient and let the program and equipment do their thing before yanking out any cords.

    I did have to repair my headphones and MI6 and resave my saved programs, but that was easy enough. Hopefully I'll be able to get out in a day or so and try out the new software. Best of luck to you all!

    When my MC and WS6 report success I push the go back key and disconnect. I've done this on every update. 

       Maybe something else is causing the frozen controllers?

    This is not true. The WS6 headphones are complete junk and the shaft is not usable in water.  

    I like the WS6. Most of the places I use a metal detector it pays to be very aware of your surroundings.
