Cricut Design Studio Update

Hi Ladies-I had a friend call this week and let me know she had trouble loading her CDS update to her computer.  She went thru alot of heartache to finally resolve the problem with Cricut.  I am posting some instructions here in the hopes that some of you will not have to spend hours trying to get your updates done.  Thank you Joyce for calling attention to this problem your struggles will help others avoid the same issue.

Cricut Design Studio Update


If your firmware update is not working do the following:

1. Go to start

2. My computer

3. C drive

4. Program files

5. Cricut Software folder

6. Cricut Design Studio

7. Firmware releases

8. Click on the file Cricut_v2_34.enc , then right click and add an a after the 34. So your file should read Cricut_v2_34a.enc.

9. Then click on the file Cricut_v2_34b.enc, then right click and just delete the b. So your file should read Cricut_v2_34.enc.

10. Go to your design studio and do your firmware update.

11. When your firmware update is done and you turn on your Cricut it should say version 2.34.

My thanks to Jennifer Boyd from the South Jordan Roberts for getting the instructions together in such a concise easy to understand format.  Hope this helps anyone having trouble with their Cricut Update.  Happy Cutting!!!
