RadioAddedEventHandler not working ...

Gary L. Robinson

I have made four or five small form based client programs for my Flex 6400 SDR Radio with SmartSDR 2.4.9 on it.  I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2017.  I have always used the same simple code (below) to detect the radio and connect to it. 

But this code (below) does not work now when I start making a new cllient.  

The clients I already have made and are still installed (manually) STILL work with NO problems.  However, if I move the program files to another folder location - they stop working.  

The reason they don't work is because the API.RadioAddedEventHandler is NEVER fired.  It never gets the message from the radio.

This makes me think it may be some security issue caused by Windows 10 - or It might be some changes in the latest FlexLib code that I use.  I always keep up with latest FlexLib.  However, it seems to me that Windows 10 is a more likely culprit.

I do NOT use ANY virus or security software - except that which Windows 10 has included with it.  

Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome.

Check your firewall settings. If your old firewall rule was for your original app then it is for the full path.

Mark,

If I had a million dollars I would send it to you!!  It was the firewall!  I just turned the WIndows firewall OFF - not sure if there is a more simple solution.  My router firewall is good enough.

Again, thanks very much.  It just makes me wish even harder that FlexLib was available on Linux hihi
