Unable to Launch GS-911downloader in Windows 10
JWMcDonald:
Have made some progress with establishing .exe into the White List of BitDefender.
No luck with attempting to get 1711.1.
Have success with 1703.1 launching, accepting terms of License Agreement, choosing components (Main program, shortcuts & USB driver), choosing Install Location (accept default destination folder of C:\Program Files (x86)\GS-911), then Install (Welcome to Devise Drive Installation Wizard).
Completing the Device Driver Installation Wizard indicates that drivers were successfully installed and that the status is Ready to Use. Indicates that can now connect device to computer.
Device is connected via USB port - green blinky light on the device.
Upon the Completiung the GS-911 V1703.1 Setup Wizard, chose tp Run GS-911 V1703.1 and select Finish.
Window comes up to indicate the application is more than a year old, and click OK.
Setup screen appears, with USB selected.
Upon Test interface, comes up with Error Test Failed: Could not open USB: No supported USB Driver found - Unplug and re-insert GS-911 to complete the USB driver install or re-install the application.
No joy.
Upon checking Settings / Devices, GS911USB-G2 is listed.
The HEX site indicates that there is GS911 1711.2, as well as the latest 1711.3.
Can someone advise where those versions are available at ? Opening GS-911Downloader from the HEX web page indicates it is 1711.1.exe
I welcome any direction that will show me the error of my ways.
JWMcDonald:
Additional note - have also confirmed that the Acer computer that I am working with has the latest BIOS effected.

Which .exe have you put into the white list of BiDefender ?, it sounds like Bitdefender or Win10 is preventing the application from accessing the USB
Once you have a version of the GS911 PC App installed (in your case 1711.1) when you launch the PC App with the GS911 connected via USB the App should check for updates and if one is available a dialogue box should come up asking whether to install it
Where the PC App does not find an update go to the menu and select Help/About and firstly confirm it shows the GS911 details, if it shows the details and registration for your GS911 you should be able to use the "check for update" button to update to 1711.3
If the Help/About dialogue does not show the details for your GS911 then exit the GS911 PC App, turn off BitDefender and launch the GS911 PC App again, go to Help/About and see if it now sees the GS911 connected to the USB port, if not use the "Interface Information" button the try to initialise communication with the GS911, report the results so the next step can be determined
JWMcDonald:
To put this to bed:
Got back to this issue recently after being laid up since April 2018 after extended foot surgery...
Put it in the hands of my corporate IT resource and got satisfaction with successful installation after lobotomizing BitDefender... 8)

The download of the GS-911downloader appears to be successful, and the User Account Control window comes up asking to allow app to make changes.
Respond with "Yes" and then goes into never-never land - never launches.
Have confirmed Administrator Status.
Suggestions ?
Thanks in advance.
