Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"
I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...

It would be a great so I can quickly see what new drops there are or to just brose what they actually have to sell me. I enjoy seeing the communities opinions and polls on the items they would like to have. But primarily I am here to find quality goods at a markdown I wouldn't be able to achieve.
The community is cool and all but I'm trying to spend my money and I much rather would to to other places to window shop orally because I have to press to buttons Everytime to see the drops page.
I understand I can see all my subscribed drops at once, but I like to do the window shopping thing in categories, I see myself more and more in Amazon, wish, geek, woot, and even eBay more then massdrop. When I'm just trying to look at what is available to me massdrop isn't my go to site.
I've tried the polls and to wait, but honestly it feels like a waiting game that you don't necessarily always win it's frustrating when a product that was voted first isn't a drop but the product voted third gets a drop. It's very defeating. I would rather just have the drop page as an option to be first. No disappointment easier to window shop
