Now my finepix studio wont download the RAF files. The first download I did would. They were in Fine. What a pain it has been. Any help on that would be greatly appreciated.

Latest version is 8.1.8.0 here, last updated 4/1/2021:

If you download this (about 500mb download), does it work with your compressed raws?

I wouldn't know the answer since I have all my raws saved in uncompressed mode (plenty of room on my SD cards for these, even though they are only 16GB, but that's just my shooting style).  The problem I have with compressed raws is that I worry about software being unable to deal with them, and this seems to be the issue.

But, the latest and greatest free Fuji/Silkypix raw converter ought to deal with all the Fuji raw formats.  Shouldn't it?
