btw, Osmocom RTL-SDR Driver is unstable too because it causes crashes sometimes when you start & stop SDR#, so is not recommended, while Keenerds RTL-SDR Drivers are really stable with SDR# 1910.
Thank you for the correction. I did have some stop & start problems when I first used early versions of SDR# with the RTL-SDR.

I looked for advice from different sources about using the RTL-SDR.COM V3 dongle with SDR# v1910.

First advice from Zeifer69:
I use the 32 bit version and I have tested it in several versions of sdr# lower than v1784 and they work perfectly, it improves the reception in general and it does not freeze anymore. In the case of the osmocom drivers, the latest version of 2019 is the one that has worked best for me. Index of /binaries/windows/rtl-sdr/

In each version that you download, in the case of Windows, there is a file called " librtlsdr ", you have to rename it to " rtlsdr " and copy all the DLLs to your sdr sharp folder.
That worked OK, so I thought the binary was the right choice.

Second advice from PDXh0b0:
1910 with keenerds , been flawless for me
That sounded like good advice, but I wasn't certain about where to look for it.

Third advice from MELERIX:

That gave me a link to try.
