Helix Locked Up During Firmware Update

What do I do? Finally hunkered down to do a long overdue update to the Helix. I avoid them like a plague (no pun intended) because something always goes wrong. But, I have sessions and a gig this week and I know I really need to get my presets in order. Seemed to be going great - I walked away to grab a cup of coffee and for some reason while I was gone, my computer decided to update in the middle of my Helix update. Now the Helix is locked up and HX Edit cannot connect to it.

- Shut down HX Edit.

- If you are on Windows, reboot or open task manager to kill the HX Edit service (which will still be running in the background for no good reasons...).

- Download the update as individual flash files.

- Open the Line 6 Updater.

- Perform the update there, using the downloaded flash files.
