Win10 seems to know the device is there, it makes the noise when its plugged in and unplugged. In Devices Manager it shows libusbK USB > flirc. Just that the software never changes to a happy face. EDIT: turns out I have a dual boot Linux Mint 19 that i completely forgot about. I went into there, ran the Debian installer, ran the Flirc util, then when I plugged in the device it came back with "do you want to update the firmware from 1.2 to 3.11" After that it came up fine in my linux distro. I wonder if Windows will see it fine now as well. EDIT2: Now Win10 sees my device. Earlier I did have to use that Zagit utility but I still was getting the disconnect device, but now I get the driver and the device recognized.

So it seems this may be an issue; Gen1 Flirc with Win10. I already attempted to follow this thread to no avail. I will continue trpoubleshooting, but was wondering if there were any other things I could try? Would it help if I tried loading a Live USB of Ubuntu or something, and attempting to load up the software that way?
