Thank you so much, dj_si, that actually worked for me!

- Make sure the Fender Tone Win10 app is fully closed (not minimised)

- Ensure that the LT25 is off, connect it to the computer with the microUSB cable, then switch the amp on

- Wait for Windows 10 to confirm the required driver setup has finished and the "device is ready" (just to make sure that the computer and amp can talk to each other!)

- Switch the LT25 off

- Start the Fender Tone Win10 app - it will say it can't find any device

- On the LT25, while keeping the encoder dial's centre button pressed down, switch on the amp and count 3 seconds, then release the button - this puts the amp into Firmware Update Mode, and the LCD display will remain off

- The Fender Tone app on the computer should now offer to update the LT25's firmware

Hope that helps!
