Try running the standalone upgrade tool from outside of Cube STM32 Programmer.

Make sure it's not connected to any other IDE

i am using the stm32 cube programmer.

i downloaded it from this link:

The hardware, not the software.

I suspect, but have no inside knowledge, that ST has changed something in the upgrade process which rejects knockoff programmers like this one and/or the very likely counterfeit chip on there is not fully compatible. There are occasional reports like this.

I see. To be honest, I wasn't aware it is a knockoff programmer. Anyways, thank you for the information TDK :)
