Cannot Update Emulator's Firmware and Connectivity Kit

[smtwmim]

Thanks for the explanation. Just to clarify, the latest firmware dated 07/10/2017 is only available for the physical calculator, whereas the latest "firmware" available for the emulator is the one included in the exe file dated 12/08/2016? I suppose the emulator is therefore currently somewhat behind the physical calculator in functionality and/or bug fixes?

And you're correct, my FTP connection does seem to terminate instantly right after I check for update. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
