Like this...?\r\nC:/Program Files (x86)/OpenTX/Companion 2.2/dfu-util.exe\r\n\r\nNote: I have Companion 2.0, 2.1, 9X, and 2.2 RC9 installed side by side which I installed in that order over time.  Possibly it was wrong when I installed Companion 2.1 and I fixed the path up.  The current problem may be that the installer is seeing it as user modified and bringing it forward.  There was a similar bug in 2.1 where it retained the 2.0 install path when installed side by side which I worked around by resetting various paths manually.   I'm using Windows 7 Pro SP1\r\n\r\nThe only reason I can see to retain the existing path is if it is not pointing to the the prior install's location and even then it may be better to reset it to the new install.  I'm not clear why it is user settable so I could be misunderstanding why it should be retained.\r\n\r\nProbably not an important bug but I have come across various people using 2.1 that have the DFU-Util location be not set to or possibly set incorrectly which seemed to cause problems for them and this may be the reason.\r\n\r\n\r\n"}}
