Hi @meringue5 and welcome to the forums!

I saw your issue and have a few follow-up questions:

  • Have you checked if you can boot using the device? If something just went wrong during verification, there’s still a chance the write was successful.
  • Is this something you can reproduce with different images and devices?
  • What version of balenaEtcher are you using?

Why was the link deleted? Is it this forum’s way?
What I tried to write should be a necessary information.
Disappointed.

I’ve been struggling with this error for more time than I care to admit.

I finally found a list of things to try. What finally allowed the app to work is adding the app to the Windows Firewall.
