Hi all you brilliant young minds; the past three days have been troublesome to say the least.
Tried every which way (followed every instruction) to update firmware to no avail.
And this the following text is the closest I get.
What little hair I have is almost gone, please help 
(base) C:\Users\me>odrivetool dfu
ODrive control utility v0.4.1
Waiting for ODrive...
Found ODrive 205C36A03548 (v3.5-48V) with firmware v0.4.1-dev
Checking online for newest firmware... found v0.4.6
Downloading firmware v0.4.6...
Saving configuration to C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Temp\odrive-config-205C36A03548.json...
Configuration saved.
Putting device 205C36A03548 into DFU mode...
