Try down loading it by "right clicking" on the
download link on RFSquared.com and the do a "Save
Target As..." of the OrionUpdate.exe firmware update
file to a simple directory path such as C:\FLASH on
the hard drive. Then run the self extracting
executable from there. Over time you can keep all
copies of the firmware that you download in separate
sub directories, a very good thing to be doing anyhow.

>From what your describing in the error message it
looks like it may not like the spaces that are in the
path for the default Windows downloads directory and
you tried to run it directly from the web page instead
of downloading it as separate operation first. My
experience with applications is that when they try to
run in a 8.3 file name space (the "~" in the name is
the clue) they don't usually handle spaces in
directory paths very well either.
