Default BOOM GTS Software Update problem

I download the latest BOOM GTS software from HD site. I zipped the file generating an ISO format file. I saved it on an USB pen and followed the manual instruction.
Unfortunatelly the BOOM show an error message saying that the file is not correct.
What is wrong?
Many thanks!

The file needs to be unzipped and in the root directory of the thumb drive. You may want to check that.

Thanks for your reply. That is exactly what I did but I still receive the error message saying that the loaded file is not fine

If you are using version 1.22.0.2, that many people are having problems with, try version 1.22.0.1 others have had better results. Staying up with the latest download is way overrated. For every one glitch it fixes many times it causes 2 or 3 more. Also people do the free system update thinking it will update the GPS. It doesn't work that way. You have to pay for GPS updates. However, you do get a limited number of free GPS updates. Check with your dealer if that is what you are looking for or download the HD ride planner app for more information. Good luck

It is my understanding that only the CVOs get the free map updates (2-3 I believe). Us little people with our Specials and Ultras and what not do not get any free map updates.

I thought it was unlimited for CVOs and 2 or 3 for non-CVOs on the maps. Not really sure. I have a 2015 CVO Limited and haven't updated the maps the first time yet.
I should probably check into it myself before the free ones expire or something.

From my 2015 BOOM! BOX (Infotainment) manual under Navigation/Updating Database Page 179 which refers to NAVIEXTRAS:
"For CVO models, three navigation map database updates can be downloaded for free over a five year period"

I believe HD no longer includes a hard copy of this manual with bike purchase.
