Thanks everyone!
The update is still failing when I used the link above - I am guessing that it is because I have the basic Gen1 Sync in my truck (no nav, no touch screen, etc). And, I still get the same web page error when I try to download it from the Ford owners site. I would love to give your copy a shot and see if I have any better luck.

Update: It does not work.

The files I linked are actually supposed to be for a 2015 Escape with the 4.2" screen like I have in my truck. Good to know it also works on systems like the one pictured above. This is what my stereo looks like.

Well, I have tried every single copy of the software that I have been able to find, or has been sent to me, and all I can get from my truck is "File not Found". I have tried 5 different thumb drives (all formatted FAT32) and copied the files to it in every single conceivable manner with absolutely no luck whatsoever. And yes, I am simply unzipping the source file and copying it to the root of a freshly formatted thumb drive - none of the files within the source are being altered or unzipped.

Ford's IVT and Sync support teams are about as useful as Anne Frank's drum kit, so I guess that I am stuck with the dud unit that Ford installed in my truck for the foreseeable future. Thanks to all that have offered copies of their files for me to use.

Unzip the source file directly to the thumb drive, do not unzip to your pc and copy over to the TD.

I have tried doing that, both with the built in Windows utility, as well as my preferred application, 7Zip. Still generates 'File not Found' as a result

I have configured the drives on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 - all yield the same 'File not Found' result.

I have performed both 'Restore Defaults' as well as a 'Master Reset' and have even gone so far as to pull the battery for five minutes to reset anything else. Upon trying to install the update, I still get 'File not Found'.

Take a pic of your radio and post it.
