-
Python 2.x - Python 2.x is now end-of-life and no longer supported by MFT.
To use the latest and up-to-date MFT tools, we recommend you use Python 3.x. -
mstflint - When downgrading to a firmware version that does not support the flash type of the device, mstflint will present the user a clear error of such scenario.
