If the file is saved via the File, Save As menu, instead of closing VEConfigure and confirming the changes, it will save to a new .VSC file. This file can be opened, adjusted, and used to update locally with an MK3 adapter, but it cannot be uploaded to update a remote unit. You must use the .RVSC file downloaded from the system that you intend to change the settings of, and then upload that same file once changes are made. | ||
