DfuseDemo V3.0.6 not working after Windows 10 update?

[diego ambroggi]

Hello everybody,

I have some problems with Dfuse Demo recently.

No changes in my device hardware.

In 2 PCs using Win10, Dfuse stopped work.

In other PCs using Win7 continue working correctly.

Have some tips for me?

Thanks in advance

Hi Diego,

Same problem here - all my customers are affected by this one.

For development we can work around by using dfu-util but we are expecting someone from ST to come back with a fix (workaround)

The tool is deprecated, use the STM32 Cube Programmer, supports USB/DFU connectivity

Look at release schedules and dates.

STM32 Cube Programmer replaces

ST-LINK Utilities

Flash Demonstrator

DfuSe Demo

>>is this the official position of ST ?

I've been here 12+ years, I can read the tea leaves for myself. I'm sure if you dig through posts from ST staff you'll find the deprioritization of the older tools.

Hi,

I solved using STM32 Cube Programmer instead. It's the only solution.

Cube Programmer is the newer tool and is better than Dfuse.

Thanks to Clive Two.Zero

How to you flash a dfu file to a device. STM32 Cube Programmer does not see it as a file so how is that a valid replacement for dfuse?

[diego ambroggi]

Hi,

I started to use STM32 Cube Programmer for flashing .Hex files one year ago. I think it's the best way to program STM32 devices.

So IIt s a long time I don't use .dfu files.

Best regards

This doesn't help me because the firmware from the company I am working with only creates DFU's.

[diego ambroggi]

There is the possibility to convert DFU to BIN or HEX using "DFU file manager".

You can find this utility in STSW-STM32080 packet, linked below.
