Hello, is the downloaded file compressed? If so, please try to un-compress it before flashing with Etcher and see if that works instead. If you still have issues, please provide a link to the exact HA image you are trying to flash so we can check it out.

Hi, were you able to try my colleague’s suggestion to uncompress the file before flashing? If so, did it work for you? If not and you still have issues, could you please provide a link to the exact Home Assistant image you are trying to flash so we can check it out?
