I'm at a loss. i hook up my TRX1 to the computer and the windows 10 doesn't recognize the cable anymore. when i hook up the cable to the computer. how do I Fix this?
Search "Windows 10 unsigned driver issue," this has been covered extensively. Also, there are reports of a Windows Update disabling the correct driver even if you went through the process and got it installed before so if you did, you'll have to do it all over again. Ah, the wonderful fun of Windows! (/sarcasm)
Whistler does not have an unsigned driver, they are using the Microsoft USB driver. This one is 100% on Microsoft and a change they made in Windows 8 onward.
There is nothing wrong with the driver Whistler is using. I have been using my scanners for over 5 years and never any problems. But then .. I have been doing IT for over 20 years and know what I am doing.
Btw .. maybe time for people to read the sticky at the top of this forum.
This thread kind of explains what is going on. It is not a Whistler issue, it is a Microsoft issue. Whistler actually fixed this issue a while back in a update, don't know why it keeps cropping up.

Don't know about Mac...but I think I could motivate myself to really learn Linux if there was a version of E-Z Scan (and Win500) for it. And I'm not talking running it in a VM. Scanner and radio CPS is about all I really "need" Windows for...I get really tired of MS's buggy OS and larcenous behavior and would love to just dump them.They should make the scanners MAC compatible so we dont have to suffer with Windows! Helloooooo Whistler......Helllooooo Uniden!

Another 'me too' for a Linux version! Whilst I can run windows in a virtual environment, it's often not convenient to do so as it sometimes doesn't play nicely with stuff I already have running on Linux at the time I want to make use of E-Z Scan etc.Don't know about Mac...but I think I could motivate myself to really learn Linux if there was a version of E-Z Scan (and Win500) for it.

I've only played with it, using boot sticks for various distros, never made the commitment to really learn it because I need Windows and at my age it's hard enough to keep up with that. But if just E-Z Scan came out in a Linux version...I think that would overcome my personal inertia.Another 'me too' for a Linux version!
