Computer wont recognise mini to upgrade
Need to update my Mini firmware.
When I connect my Mini to either of two computers I have and open PruserSlicer>Configuration>Flash Firmware it fails.
It shows I have "USB Serial Device (COM 3) but doesn't say anything about it being a printer or a MINI etc.
Rescan produces no change and no other options in the menu.
When I initially plugged in the Mini the computers both say they are setting up a USB device and then state it is ready to use.
No indication that it knows what the device actually is. Seems to indicate it is just a generic device.
I tried disabling my antivirus firewall. No effect.

Firmware is updated from the USB stick. Check the manual for details.

Yeah, worked that out today after hours while scouring through webpages.
Pity the main firmware, drivers and update page doesn't make that more clear.
The "How to Flash Firmware " tab at the top it takes you to a page of instructions etc that doesn't have anything separate about the mini so the user is left to assume it covers all models.
I noted that someone in the comments has also asked for Mini instructions to be added. Looks like I'm not the only one.

"It shows I have "USB Serial Device (COM 3) but doesn't say anything about it being a printer or a MINI etc." Remove power from printer, if that port "goes away" it's the printer if not, it's not.
