Invoke-DellBiosupdate.ps1 causes TS to freeze #6

I'm having this weird issue, The detection for downloading the bios update works as expected, however when the bios update script runs the TS just freezes.

I noticed the same, been a Lenovo shop for a few years, no issues with the Lenovo's. Starting to test some Dells. Looks like UAC is preventing the process from moving forward. Killing Flash64W,exe will allow the TS to move forward however the BIOS will not get flashed.

I am also having this issue, specifically with the Dell Optiplex 3080, and Precision 3640 Towers...so far. Would love to get this fixed.

Update: So the version of the Flash64W I had was from 2019. This is what my version of the DAT is pulling. I downloaded one from April of this year, dropped it in the BIOS package and updated the distro points. While it does not freeze anymore, it also doesn't install anything (install log just returns 0kb and nothing happens). I think that the issue may lie more with what files the DAT is grabbing.

I ended up modifying the script so it would not use Flash64W.
