Brainstorm not updating

Bugs
1

Hello,
I'm trying to use data from EEGLAB in Brainstorm but I always get an error in fopen_eeglab.m and it says reference to none-existent field in 'EEG', so I tried to update Brainstorm multiple times but it won't update. When I open Brainstorm I get a warning telling me that my version of Brainstorm is old so I tried everything I read on the page about updating it and I installed the brainstorm3 folder again but nothing is working. What can I do about that? Also how can I make the error go away to upload my EEGLAB file, it is an .set file straight from EEGLAB.
Best regards,
Arndís

When I open Brainstorm I get a warning telling me that my version of Brainstorm is old so I tried everything I read on the page about updating it and I installed the brainstorm3 folder again but nothing is working.

If the automatic updates crash: delete the existing brainstorm3 and install a download a new one from the website: https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Installation#Updates

If after restarting Matlab you have an error while running brainstorm, please copy-paste the full error message here.

I already tried everything from the link https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Installation#Updates,
I deleted the brainstorm3 and uploaded the newest one but it would not update after restarting Matlab.
This is what I get when opening Brainstorm:

Here is a link to the .set file

The error message I get when uploading the .set file is:

** Error: Line 48: Reference to non-existent field 'EEG'.

This is not the latest version of Brainstorm, which is from today.
You may have other versions of Brainstorm installed on your computer.
Delete ALL the brainstorm3 folders from your computer.
Check your Matlab path, delete everything that is not related strictly with the Matlab installation.

Here is a link to the .set file

This is a file with a binary file attached, please also upload the .fdt file.
