Windows 10: Windows 10 1909 update Parallel Dongle

Hi all,


We run old software that uses a parallel port license dongle to verify and open the software.

Once we update to 1909 from 1903 we can no longer open the software.

Hi Miguel,



Thank you for updating us. Let me help you.



As a work around, I suggest you to run the following troubleshooting steps and check if it resolves the issue.



Hardware Troubleshooter

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your Printer. Refer these steps:

  Press Windows key +X, select
  Control panel

  Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons
  
• 
  Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel

  Run the Hardware and devices.
  

Check if it helps.



And also try connecting the dongle in a different system (If possible) and check if it detecting or not.





Please reply with the details and updated status of the issue. We will be happy to assist you accordingly.
