Hello

My Vox updated to the march 8th update successfully, been trying to run your root script on windows but with my Vox in debugging mode it does not appear in windows device manager, I tried a few things like running your driver fix script, restarting my computer and restarting my device.

I looked into your batch file to see what it was doing. I got the gist of what it is doing so I figured I would try using my linux box to do the same as I already had Android dev tools installed (in case it was a windows driver error). Here is where things get interesting the device doesn't appear in debugging mode in Linux either.

So I am beginning to think the update might have ruined my ability to debug, The next thing I will probably try is a factory reset unless anyone can think of another possibility.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
