I've unzipped the RUU on my computer. downloaded the MightyRom5 to my computer, and moved it to the RUU folder. I have hooked up my Pro with the USB cable, and started the RUU executable, I tell it to run, and I get Error(240): File Open. The update utility can not open the requested file. Please check your update utility.

I have tried to install minus my micro SD card and still get the same message.
I have gone to connections and disabled advanced communications under activesync and still get the same message.

Please help.
Did you make sure that after you extracted the MM5 download to your Desktop that you copied and pasted the (RUU_signed.nbh) only file from there to the extracted RUU dowload files on your Desktop? Now you connect you phone via USB and Its then that you run the Utility.exe that is also located in the RUU extracted files. Heres a very good explanation:
You now need to obtain the ROM Update Utility (RUU) which can be found here. Extract the RUU folder to somewhere on your hard drive, like your desktop. Then copy the custom ROM file (RUU_signed.nbh) to the RUU folder you just extracted. For example, the RUU folder is at C:\RUU and the custom ROM is located at C:\RUU\RUU_signed.nbh .

Power off your phone by holding the power button down until you get this message:
“Power will be turned off, and you may lose data if you have not saved them. Do you want to continue?”
Choose “Yes” and the phone will shut off. Now, hold the down power and volume down button at the same time until you see the tri-color bootloader screen. Then connect your phone via USB cable to your computer. The picture to the right shows what your screen should look right before flashing.
Once you’ve got everything hooked up correctly, run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe program inside of the ROM Utility Updater folder (e.g. C:\RUU\ROMUpdateUtility.exe). Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you’re finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
