    Quoted from titanpenguin:

    if you are doing the delta update, you have to drag the unzipped file on to the usb, then unzip it.

    You can't unzip a file that's already unzipped.

    Quoted from titanpenguin:

    instruction from jjp specifically state to drag the zipped file onto the usb drive, then unzip it on the usb drive. Not sure why that needs a down vote.

    Because you suggested a course of action that IS NOT POSSIBLE. You can't unzip a file that's already unzipped.

    I suspect you mis-typed your initial response (below) and restated their instructions correctly in your follow-up (above).

    you have to drag the unzipped file on to the usb, then unzip it.

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    "please ensure wonka_update directory is located in the USB root" and "no update directory found"

    This error message is telling you that the computer can't find the files in the right place on your USB stick.
    Maybe post a screenshot of the root directory of your USB drive?

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    trying to update from 1.33 to 2.01 and I cannot get it to work

    Quoted from LTG:

    You have to do a Full Install for this. Delta only works on 1.34 to 2.01

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    This is what I've been doing with no luck.

    Note that your first post you mentioned a zip file but when LTG reminded you it's a full install you said that's what you were doing. The full install is not a zip file, it's an iso image. The delta upgrade is a zip file but that won't work to go from v1.33 to v2.01.

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    I'm literally just taking the zip file directly from JJP, loading it to desktop and then loading that to the USB using the ISO copy program...I'm not fussing with it in any way...Plus I dont know how to take a screenshot lol

    That's your problem. You can't use the delta (zip file). You need the full install (iso image).

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    The ISO is downloaded as a zip file

    No it isn't. It's downloaded as an iso.

    Can you open the download folder and type the name of every file(including the extension behind the .) that begins with "WillyWonka"?

    Anyone running Chrome and computer savvy enough to check and see if there is a setting that defaults to .zip when downloading an .iso?

    It would be crazy to find out OP's ISP cached the file and is feeding it as a .zip.

    Quoted from Pinfactory2000:

    but when I download it it downloads to zip

    Why do you keep saying it's a .zip file? The .zip file has a completely different name. You have the file extension cut off in your screenshot but the size and file name is the exact same as the .iso I just downloaded so if WinRar is telling you it's a .zip it's been zipped 0.0% which is totally pointless (but would be very confusing).

    Do you want to try a Teamviewer session?

    Download Teamviewer, run it (third option, no need to install), and PM me your ID and I'll take a look.

    Was one of your browsers renaming the .iso to .zip or was that an end user issue?
