Reboot your computer. Sounds like a windows related issue.

#2  

Rebooting the computer does not help. I have attached the error message and the image of the file directory. Please help as I am still locked out from using EZB. The PC has the latest software, but the controller is one verison behind. I do not know how to go back to the old verison or solve this problem. PLEASE HELP!

I dont know if this will help but this is what I would try. -Uninstall EZ-B software.

-Run windows update and make sure any optional .net stuff is downloaded. (restart if necessary)

-Install EZ-B

-Make sure bluetooth is recognizing and connects to EZ-B

-Run firmware update

:/ You probably already tried that.

That error message says you have 2011.12.05.00 and not the most current version. Something has confused your windows installation. I agree with Glick in that you will need to uninstall - reboot - reinstall

I can't explain why. If I could, I would have written windows, and it would be much more reliable:)
