MINI won't recognize new firmware on reboot, can't update firmware

I currently have firmware version 4.3.2 and trying to update so I can add the wifi module.  The printer has no issues seeing and printing gcodes.  I did swap out the original Prusa flash drive with my own as the original kept having failures.  I am copying the unzipped firmware file to the usb drive, then inserting it into the Prusa and hitting the reboot button, the MINI reboots and goes to the home screen without recognizing any firmware.  The FW Update setting is set to "always on" and there is no other firmware on the usb stick.  My regular computer I'm using to download/copy files is an M1 MacBook Pro. 

Best Answer by FoxRun3D:

Are the two files in the root directory of the drive?

What 2 files?  I have the one .zip file with the with the firmware titled, "prusa3d_fw_4_4_1_MINI.zip" and a gazillion gcode files.  Thanks,  Greg

Sorry, I totally misread the instructions and thought I was supposed to leave the file zipped.  My fault.  I got it now.  Thank you for your response!
