Try this Andrew;

Kind of common using old tools with newer windows. MSP-430, nice part!

Disable the digital signature on your PC will resolve the issue.
- Click “Home”，enter “All settings”.
- Access “Update & Security”.
- Find “Recovery”. Click “Restart now” below “Advanced start-up”,restart 
the PC.
- After restarting, choose “Troubleshoot”.
- Choose “Advanced options”.
- Choose "Start-up Settings".
- Click “Restart”.
- Enter "F7" to disable driver signature.
