Flirc Gen1 Driver and Software
For some reason, the windows software was artificially flagged as having a virus. This was a chrome / firefox issue. When you download a file, they do an online virus scanner, and one of the 20 scans falsely flagged it. I could not figure it out. Once downloaded, no virus existed in the software.
The only thing I could think of, was the installer for the Flirc Gen1 Drivers. They are not needed for the Gen2 device, since the new device runs without drivers.
The current software on the site is stripped of the driver install for gen1. I don't see any more virus flags, but I'm still unable to say for certain if this was the issue. Particularly because the version prior to the last doesn't seem to show anything. Here is a download that has the driver installer: https://flirc.tv/software/flirc-usb/GUI/release/windows/Flirc-Setup-3.25.2.exe
So for now, let's rely on this. I will be putting together a support page specifically for the gen1 hardware, which will have the driver installer as a separate installer until I can figure this out. I do not plan on discontinuing support for gen1.

I have an issue with my Flirc remote. When you select option A, it will switch back to option B every time. I have reset the remote and reporgrammed it but it has not fixed the issue. Does anyone know a fix for this?

I have been asked for previous versions of the old plastic version of filrc. I do not support this product anymore, use at your own risk, and I will not be responsible if it is bricked. If the upgrade fails, restart the GUI, it should restore the latest firmware.

Post https://forum.flirc.tv/index.php?/forum/105-flirc-usb-gen1/ by @jason from a few days ago has a link to https://flirc.tv/software/flirc-usb/GUI/release/windows/Flirc-Setup-3.25.2.exe which does not work (ends up on regular download options page). Sounds similar to post from last year

Hi, Not sure if this forum is still alive but here goes nothing! I have a Flirc Streacom edition ... Gen 1 and it's been a faithful little device for years. Recently, I purchased a new TV and I wanted to remap the buttons to a new remote... and that's when the fun began. I found the flirc app was showing as disconnected despite the device still functioning normally with my old remote. I followed the instructions for uninstalling and reinstalling the driver but to no avail. The driver was installed and showing as healthy in the device manager. I tried the command line utility flirc_util but it just gave me errors "Access is denied. Unable to contact device".…

Hello, viewing the "Flirc Gen 1 Sticky", the link doesn't go to the v3.25.2 executable file but instead to the product download page where the current version is listed. Can we get the 3.25.2 file hosted somewhere? thanks
