  FLASH, the Soft X-Ray and Extreme-UV Free Electron Laser at DESY, is undergoing a substantial upgrade and refurbishment project, called FLASH2020+. The project will finally enable external seeded and SASE FEL operation for a wavelength range down to 4 nm with the EEHG method. A key ingredient of the upgrade was replacing two early TTF-type L-band RF cryo accelerator modules by modern, high-gradient XFEL-type ones. The beam energy range of the injector has been increased by 100 MeV. This was achieved in the first of two long shutdowns from November 2021 to August 2022. The energy increase together with an afterburner APPLE III type undulator for variable circular polarization in the FLASH2 beamline will make it possible to reach the oxygen K-edge (530 eV). This talk will report on the project and the first shutdown with emphasis on the upgraded modules.
