If you use the latest beta (1.3.32) there is a menu Camera->Refresh Camera list. If still not working please send your log file (Menu->Help->Send log file)

Hi Ashley, I have a similar issue with my D3100 (see a couple threads below) and since nobody replied, I would be interested in any feedback and/or information you can provide. Thanks.

The DSLR dashboard  required

The DSLR dashboard  required special windows driver to connect cameras under windows, so if is working then that driver is used, but that driver not compatible with dCC.  http://dslrdashboard.info/windows-insta ... sb-driver/

Hi Duka,

Hi Duka, Still no joy.  I've tried all of the driver setting on there.   looking in device manager, under the USB section for my camera i cannot see the windows related driver when i try and choise one when doing a driver update and picking from a list.Is there another version of the usb driver i can use other than zadig? or can i force windows to use the winusb (v6.1.7600.16385).  if so where do in find this single file.  I've had a quick look and i was back to where i started. Ash Ash

I never installed other

I never installed other drivers using e.g. the Zadig utility. The proplems occur on a fresh Win10 installation (VMware). On another Win10 installation (native), DCC is running. On the other Hand, DCC is running on Win7 under VMware. Strange..
