• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Found a bunch of old posts on this but not the solution. Figured I would post it here for archived reference.

Problem: Upgraded to windows 10 and cannot read radios. Instant 1687 Error

Solution :
If you've got the 'MOTOTRBO Drivers' folder in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Motorola' folder, then go into the 'MOTOTRBO Drivers folder' then into the RNDIS sub folder.

Once there, run DPinst.exe. That will install the drivers that let your computer see the radio as an internet device. When you plug in the radio, you should see Windows ask you if you want to recognize new networks. Choose yes.

Note that sometimes it takes a while for the computer to see the radio when it's first being discovered.. Leave it plugged in for a few minutes.

Thanks to this link for posting the solution that worked for me.
