(Need help) debrick unresponsive R6900v2
I need help debricking a r6900v2 because of a failed software update
I give up I'm buying a link router from your competitors and using ddwrt.
Yes, I followed the instructions percisely!
And make sure the file was extracted to the proper location?
Yes, It was extracted using 7-zip and the file placed on the desktop, I changed the directory to one drive on win 10.
If my pathway file name was not correct then how do I fix it?

Did you get any responses to the commands you entered?
They can point to possible problems.
This process depends on timing and can take several attempts.
Don't give up. Keep trying and pay attention to the responses you get.
Here's my screenshot of my cmd on win 10.
2 things to try.
1. put the actual file on your desktop and not the onedrive.
2. rename the file name to something simple. This keeps simple errors from causing the issue.
Again, make sure you extracted it.
Also I'm seeing different models throughout your post. I've seen r6900, r6900P, R9000
Ensure the version of firmware is for your matching device. Look at the label on the route to confirm.
