ERROR 4045 Iphone not recovering

What is an error code 4045 when trying to update Iphone SE2 on a PC in recovery mode?


Gets as far as 'preparing Iphone for software update', then 'witing for iphone' when the recovery mode screen goes off on the iphone.


What is the next step when it fails to update? The phone will not switch on. Tried forced restart etc.


There exists a post but the solution is not useful. Anyone?
