[chirp_users] win 10

[Jardy]

Download 3.2.0.0. Run it. Go to device manager, pull up the info on the cable like you did before. Choose 'let me choose the driver', pick the 3.2.0.0. Always use the same physical USB port, otherwise your driver will be updated again. 

Interesting how you say you are very savvy on how to make it work, but need step by step instructions. Hope this helps.

Now since the upgrade to Win10, my Chirp program no longer recognizes my attached radios to this cable.  I have both Baofeng UV-5R+ and Wouxun KG-UV6X radios and have programmed many such radios in the past.  Now I am stuck.  I know about the Prolific Driver issue when a non-genuine chip is installed in the cable, but as far as I know, mine has the authentic Prolific chip since it has always worked in the past with my Win7 OS.
