Installing Windows 7/8 Drivers

Windows 7, 8, and earlier operating systems are no longer supported by Microsoft. Although we will do our best to continue providing a working driver for our products, unexpected updates to these operating systems may cause issues.

For your best experience with our products, we encourage customers to use Windows 10 and onwards.

Windows 10: Do not install these drivers on a Windows 10 machine – No drivers are required.
