Received following popup messsage: Error Opening Source Error,(0 , h,requestMetadata) is not a function

When attempting to open the .img file, receive a the following message: This disk file is corrupted.

Thanks for any help.

manio, as shown in my post I did extract the .xl file to a .img file. It is the .img file that I am getting the error messages.

It is .xz not .xl. I assume you are using unxz extractor and unxz-ed the file properly without issue... After extracting .img.xz you have .img, and this file needs to be flashed to your SD card. Maybe the balenaEtcher can also work on packed .img.xz files - no idea... I am team-Linux and using dd only ;) ps. If you like to try out aa-proxy-rs I unpacked a set especially for you here.

Thank you Manio for the personal attention, a big help. I compared your .img with my .img and they matched. I assumed there was another problem with my flash attempt, and not my .img. I switched imagers to the Raspberry Pi imager and flashed my SDcard with no problem. Thanks again.
