Thank you for getting back with me. However, when I tried flashing the drive, I get an error in command prompt:

Press Enter to close this window: "

Not sure what went wrong. If assistance could be provided that would be appreciated. Thank you.

Please check your PMs. That was just a Windows-exclusive bug in the flash.ps1 script due to PowerShell’s quirky syntax, so it’s not related to BDRFlash++ itself and is already all sorted out now.
Do you want to crossflash your Pioneer drive with UHD-compatible firmware? Check out BDRFlash++ here.
