Invalid File! Error When Trying To Flash Bios
I have a Inspiron 15 3585 running Ubuntu 20.10.
I am trying to flash the bios. I have downloaded the bios from the dell support site for this machine although it doesn't show this version of Ubuntu.
I followed the instructions and loaded it on a Fat32 Flash drive and hit F12 at startup but it gives the Invalid File! error.
One thing is I am booting legacy mode. When I installed Ubuntu initially that was the only option I could get to work.
Not sure if I need to boot with UEFI mode or not. I have tried to enable UEFI but the computer won't boot up.
Any help would be appreciated.

@CJ7 Did you ever find a solution? I'm trying to rollback the BIOS after it updated and now my daughter cannot get into her computer because it is asking for a Bitlocker Key she never created.
