[K3PZN-List] Yeasu FT-891 and Windows 10 issue

[Richard Krell]

No I have never encountered a problem of other programs not working.  Compatibility mode may or may not resolve your problem but it's worth a try.

Rich,

Thanks!  I'll give that a try.  Would that also mean that regular Windows
10 programs, which Microsoft won't let you get away from, not work?

 Try running Windows in a compatibility mode.  You should be able to choose
 Windows 7 or Windows 8.

 All,

 Does anyone have experience getting Windows 10 to recognize a Yeasu FT-891?

 I have a new FT 891 and I've followed the driver installation instructions
 but Windows 10 is not recognizing it.  It recognizes the drivers as a
 device but then registers the USB port on the FT-891 as unknown device.  A
 call to Yeasu tech support acknowledged that a lot of folks are seeing this
 issue but the "expert" in the problem was not available.  It appears to be
 a Windows 10 issue.

 Windows 7 recognizes it just fine.

 Any thoughts or solutions would be most appreciated.

 Thanks,

 Pete
