Figure out what is required to flash Unifying receivers from Windows

[ahtn]

Unlike Linux and OS X, on Windows it is always necessary to have a driver to communicate with a USB device, so the uniflash.py script probably won't work on Windows without a driver for the Unifying receiver.

To get the script to work, it might be as simple as installing the Logitech drivers for the Unifying receiver. If that doesn't work, it might be necessary to use zadig to apply a generic libusb driver to communicate with the Unifying receiver.

Hi,

I found out that the logitech driver does not work on windows. And I also tried zadig driver of libusb-win32 and libusbK. Both does not work. Is there any other setting that you recommend?

Btw, do you have an instruction of communication with USB device on mac?

Thanks

Hi, Updating the firmware of unifying receivers on Windows is still broken. You can try flashing from a Linux computer or VM.

Thanks @angustrau . I am trying to flash from Ubuntu 18.04 VM, I am using VMware and connected the usb device to the VM. But it still cannot find the device.
