you of the situation and gives you the option to continue or cancel.
If you didn’t check the Check Firmware Version checkbox, the utility
installs the upgrade files without checking the version numbers. As the
upgrade proceeds, status messages appear in the Status Messages panel,
and the progress toward completion is shown on the Progress bar.

succession.
