In both cases, scroll to bottom of page for the Windows binaries.

If you need different versions or 64bit versions for your Windows, a little bit of web searching should turn them up.
The above are old, 32bit versions.


Thanks, I have those, I was just trying to drag and drop into 7zip for easy moving.

I actually just finished installing the Windows 10 Linux subsystem, because I couldn't figure out how to get libraries installed for MinGW kindletool. OS I thought I would just use this new Windows 10 Linux system, and make linux binaries of it.

I re-packaged my update_PW3_5.7.4_with_5.8.2_uboot.bin using linux tar, and it looks like it is working.

I forgot to connect my serial port for logs, but it is in progress right now.

It appears to have installed correctly - operation frankenupdate is a go - now I need to find a guinea pi- sacrif- victi- volunteer, that's the word.
