Dear moderators,

My computer fails to run spd flash tools.
I downloaded spd upgrade tool and spd research download tool, and even attempted to run SPD factory tool, But they keep giving me this same error "CDLFWDriver" followed my "failed to create empty document"

see attached

I've attempted the fix @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-4870.html and the error still persists.

please help 🙏

...
please help 🙏

You're supposed to install both x84 and x64 version of the Microsoft C++ redistributables for each year. Did you do that?

Yes I did that
I installed but versions of the x86 version and the x64 version

I had even though that a restart should do the trick, but nothing changed

And I've attempted to use an older version, but I'm getting some "baudrate timeout" issue

Make sure you have all the years and versions (x86 & x64) in the screenshots below
