I found an answer to the same issue.

I tried using windows' stm32cubeprogrammer as a solution to another question.

However, when the download button is pressed, the following error occurs.

 16:54:02 : Error: The file tf-a-stm32mp157d-ev1-usb.stm32 does not exist, please check the file's path

 16:54:02 : Error: Download partition 0x01 failed

 16:54:02 : Error: TSV flashing service failed

Hello HKim.23 (Community Member) 

1- As you are using VMWare and Windows on the same machine, could you make sure the USB ressources are not shared between the 2 OS while using STM32CubeProgrammer.

2- I've just checked the source files of the starter package,  tf-a-stm32mp157d-ev1-usb.stm32 is indeed present. Make sure you select the right path in the "Binary Path" and double check the file is present (or download again the starter package https://my.st.com/content/my_st_com/en/products/embedded-software/mcu-mpu-embedded-software/stm32-embedded-software/stm32-mpu-openstlinux-distribution/stm32mp1starter.html 

Best Regards,

OlivierK, Thanks a lot.

Once I succeeded in downloading through Windows.

In order to successfully download in Windows, the bin folder containing STM32_Programmer_CLI is registered as the environment variable PATH.

Then I went to the folder where the Image is and performed the download.

Downloaded normally.

But I still have questions. If you know about this, please reply.

1. When downloading in Windows, the download speed is very slow. Do you have any way to improve this? Now it takes over a minute.

2. If using Vmware, you said "make sure the USB ressources are not shared". Is this possible in Vmware? If you know how to set this up, please guide me.

for reference, to use usb in Vmware linux, I am using as follows.​

Hi HKim.23 (Community Member)

1. Regarding the download speed, what do you mean by very slow? I would select USB 3.0 (instead of USB 2.0) as you shared in the above picture. Apart from this there's nothing much you can do to improve the download speed. Did you try the same using STM32CubeProgrammer on Linux side using VMWare?
2. I see Oracle Virtual box in the above picture, which is rather different than VMWare. On VMWare Workstation 16 player, once you plug a USB device, a popup window ask whether to allocate the ressource to VMWare or to the Host, there's also a tick box at the bottom to memorize the ressource allocation.

I confused VMWare and VirtualBox.

I will try what you said.

Thank you for answer.
