Error while flashing V551

I am new to phone modding. I actually don't really want to mod it. I just want to flash my V551 to the newest version because I'm having issues with battery life and the screen staying on once the phone is closed, and have read that this has been addressed with a newer firmware version. I currently have:
Flex: GSPAN2M0CIN03NA0D3
S/W: R472_G_08.18.16R_0A

I followed the instructions listed at the mob453 link to the letter and downloaded the new flash file from both that site and Motomodders (just the Motorola one).

Now I am having problems with MultiFlashFlex crashing on me as soon as I hit "Start," no matter which flash file I use. Windows throws up an error and closes MFF. This is the error I'm getting:

Also, once this happens and I unplug the phone from the USB cable, the phone shuts off.

I have searched both here and on Motomodders and couldn't seem to find any mention of this let alone any fix. Can anyone help me? As I said, all I really want to do is upgrade to the latest firmware to fix an problem.

Thanks in advance.

HotelOne for the win! When I did that I was able to flash it just fine. Thanks for the help.
