SmartSDR CAT will not install

K9DUR

Downloaded v0.15.13 SmartSDR loaded fine, but CAT will not install. Have tried 3 times & always get the error message shown.

Did you uninstall SmartSDR CAT and reboot the PC before trying to install the new version? This is the error you get when the installer can not install the virtual com port driver.

Tim, I uninstalled SmartCAT but did not reboot. (Release notes did not say I needed to.) I did answer "Yes" to the question about stopping the virtual com port driver. Rebooted & tried again. All is well, now! Tnx, 73, Ray, K9DUR
