When you download the file from this site and unpack it is put in a file folder, the receiver want see the file if it's in a folder, open the folder and send the file back to the USB stick, in the receiver menu select ALL Code then update.

Thank for your answer but sorry i don't understand the logic at all .. can you please put me a screenshot. I tried all the solutions but without success .. the device must it be connected in usb to the pc to see the directory? but the pc does not see the gt8..your help is welcome.
I also decompressed the file on the sub key but nothing while leaving the zip file ... this update mode is very unusual..

After "decompressed the file on the sub" open that folder and copy the .bin file on to the main directory of the USB stick.

You are correct, the V73 software is for that model only.
The latest software for the V71 is the 18/02/19, and will likely be the last for that older unit.
