I am trying to update my qx7 firmware with TX Companion. Using a micro SD card-when I try to write the new firmware--I get a message that "directory is missing". What do I need to do next and what version of firmware is "good". The TX has the 2-23-17 version

If you don't want to use Companion for the update.
In opentx and bootloaders prior to 2.2 the forder required was FIRMWARES.
In opentx 2.2 and bootloader the folder was renamed to the singular FIRMWARE.
With the Tx on navigate the Firmware Folder, select the openTX firmware file and long press enter, now you can update the bootloader.
The next time you use the bootloader menu option to update the firmware it should work.
