Yaesu Programming software

[Pezking]

Hello,

I'm currently using a Yaesu FTA-750 radio running firmware version 5.01, dated 2024.

However, the most recent programming software available on Yaesu's official website appears to be version V2.0.0.8 from 2014. Unfortunately, this software has compatibility issues with both Windows 10 and Windows 11—it launches but fails to communicate properly with the radio.

Does anyone know if there's a newer version of the programming software available that is compatible with modern operating systems? It seems unusual that Yaesu would still actively support a product without updating essential software for over a decade.

I've already contacted Yaesu support but haven't received a response yet.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or found a solution?

Thanks!

What's on Yaesu is it...
Be glad they actually have the aviation software at all, the Marine radios that have programming software they make you locate a "dealer".
