Watched that video and followed his instructions to a T, but still got a "file not found" error. 

I even reformatted the USB drive from scratch, and only put the three files on the drive.  I did not include the main .zip download on the drive, only the extracted files.

I'm pretty tech/computer savvy, but I'm at a loss with this.
Weird...and engine running, etc.  Maybe  dealer is needed. Like you, I am at a loss and I write cloud based first person games for education for a living...

Yep, engine was running.  I guess I'll try another USB drive, maybe that has something to do with it.

Dealer is the last resort!

Appreciate the help!

If you load music onto the USB drive, does it play fine in the system?  That's one way to check ...

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Loaded an mp3 onto the USB drive and plugged it in.  Sync immediately recognized the USB line in and played the song.

So the car can definitely recognize the USB stick, it just can't find the install files.

I don't get it....

Are you sure there arent any hidden files on the stick when you copy the files fir the update?  Are you using a pc or a mac fir the process?

Definitely no hidden files, as I even reformatted the drive last night which erased everything.  Once cleared, I extracted the zip contents to the USB drive.

I'm using a PC that I built (again I'm actually tech savvy lol), running Windows 10.

I'm going to try another USB drive, see if it works, but I doubt it will.

Would it matter that I'm several updates behind?  The Lincoln Owners site said Sync has not been updated since 2012, which makes me assume it's never been updated.

This is the older sync with navigation, not MyFord touch, for what it's worth.

AFAIK, it just takes way longer to update Sync if your unit is several updates behind, as in hours, but it does work.  Have to look into non-MFT Sync, that might be the issue right there, bpd updated the software in his '10 SHO, so something should be possible for the '12 MKS also. 

BTW, can you list the 3 files you put on the USB drive?

Files are a folder named SyncMyRide, and then two .lst files one named autoinstall, one named install.

The SyncMyRide folder has 8 files in it, one being a .sec file, the rest .cab files.

I did the vehicle health report yesterday, do I need to do it before each time I try?

Its from my understanding that the screen reboots every 24hrs when it goes to sleep,or after a driving cycle.  Z

Noticed the thumb has MFT as well as sync... I assume the car has MFT?
