Problem while updating my BIOS

Hello,
I'm encountering a problem; I'm trying to update the BIOS of my motherboard. I have a B660 Gaming X DDR4 from Gigabyte. I downloaded version F21 of that BIOS available on Gigabyte's website. I extracted this file to the root of my USB drive, which I formatted beforehand in FAT32. I then plugged my USB drive into the "USB BIOS" port at the back of my motherboard. After that, I restarted my computer and entered the BIOS (spamming the "delete" key like a madman). I enter the BIOS and go to the "Q-Flash" tab to update my BIOS. I select my USB drive, then the file containing the F21 BIOS update. I proceed, and I get an error message saying "invalid BIOS image." I searched online, but I couldn't find a solution to my question. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me.
Alright, thanks
I'll try and I'll let you know
I therefore re-downloaded the same file and it still doesn’t work.
Is it really the file B660GAMINGXDDR4.F21 that you put on the USB stick?
If so, I don't understand, maybe you should ask Gigabyte support in that case.
Another thing I could recommend is to format the drive to clear it and test it with H2testw to verify its validity.

Thank you very much for your help; it was good, this file, but this time I didn’t just upload the file, I uploaded the whole folder and it worked.
Thank you very much.
