I'm also having this same issue.
I encountered this with Dell Optiplex 7080.
Have you seen it with 6.5.3 as well?
Have you seen it with 6.5.3 as well?
That's what I was using.
Hello,
Same issue for me with dell flash 3.3.8, the issue must be due to extract command I presumed
Using v6.5.2, I'm seeing an issue with Dell BIOS packages not being created. Looking at the logs, it appears to be due to an error when extracting the flash64 utility. When DAT tries to extract the flash utility, if the target file already exists, the extract fails, and DAT appears to skip any further processing for that model and move on to the next model.
As a test, I deleted the ..\DriverAutomationTool\Temp\Ver3.3.8\ directory and ran the DAT download/extract/import again. This time the flash64 utility was able to extract successfully and DAT continued processing the BIOS and created the package for that model. However, when it got to the next model, it ran into the original problem. Since the ver3.3.8 directory and it's contents were created during the processing of that first model's bios, when DAT tries to extract the flash64 utility again it fails because the file already exists.
Here is a section of the logs from that run, in which the bios for the Optiplex 5080 was processed successfully, but processing the next items - the bios for Latitude 7410 and 7420- failed.
