Since most Windows users will have to install the DFU driver, I think we'd want these instructions in the app one way or another.

Searching through comments of a discussion is not ideal.

If we want to avoid nesting another pop-up menu, perhaps we could have something like this in the settings menu

App

  • Configure device drivers <---- new
  • Check for update
  • About

On the other hand, this means the hub won't be in DFU mode yet (in which case you can't follow the steps?) so maybe it does just belong somewhere in the firmware download process...

And for Windows, we may want to move the warning with the link to the bottom (i.e. after the steps), since the instructions will only work if the hub is already in DFU mode.
