Add any other context about the problem that you think might be relevant here

got this error in different FC and builds , cannot find a specific pattern. happened in MacOS latest Apple silicon processor OS. I've seen it even in one of my friend's Windows 10 PC too.

Strange this issue, I did build, flashed, configured and backed-up this exactly same FC on my computers (laptop windows 10 & desktop Windows 11), and worked fine.

However, I experienced this kind of strange behavior in the past, whereas file was pretty empty...
But not now, works pretty well.

I thought it was a MacOS issue but when I saw it on Windows too...

Tested now with 3 different builds one after the other and it worked, even the Rush one I posted on this issue. Same connection and cables as when there was the issue. Seems random to me. I haven't checked the event log of configurator though, I forgot.

Maybe a check and visual warning if backup is consistent can be added to configurator ?

As I said before I saw it happened in a friend laptop windows 10 too , on the field . We were trying to update FC firmware on the fly , preset backup save , updated the FC normally, and after that we wanted to import some settings from the backup but the file was empty.

Not anymore... I don't know what happened neither.

Next time it happens try

1. replugging flight controller
2. restarting configurator
3. rebooting computer
