Re: Trouble flashing cRIO
Our team also had a very difficult time reimaging the cRIO. The strategy that worked for us was to set the cRIO into Safe mode, cycle power, reformat using the Image app, exit Safe mode, cycle power, then Image it fully to v19 C++. That worked from the Classmate, on which we installed the complete suite of FRC software. We also have a laptop and it didn't work from that at all, so that needs all the FRC software uninstalled and reinstalled.

Note - disable Windows Firewall and UAC. Both have the potential to silently interfere with the software installation and Imaging process so it might fail and you aren't sure why.
