Here I've a little issue updating virtual Prime, at the very end of the transfer, an error appears. No problem conkit, I'm on windows 10.
I've tryed three times but.... same error.

• Will be there update for android app too? If so, will I must program my emulator again "step by step" or will be there some kind of connectivy with PC (edit: or user accessible folder on android device)?
