Hello and Welcome Back... If you own a Chinese 2-way radio such as Baofeng, Jianpai, JJCC, Radtel, Socotran, ect ect, you may have noticed that if you program your radio via Windows, that a recent windows update rendered the driver for the programming plug useless..
When you plug your program cord in and check in the device settings, you will probably see this (pic below)
'F.U. Windows Update'...
How To Fix..
Download the 2008 driver HERE and save it to your desktop of somewhere you can find it...
Double click and let the program run, it will put the driver to where it has to go...
Next, go to windows control panel and click on 'Hardware & Sound' (you can also put in 'Device Manager' in the windows search bar, bottom left of windows)
Click on Device Manager
Click on 'Ports & LPT'
Right click and select 'Properties', click on 'Driver' then 'Update Driver'
A new window will open 'How Do You Want To Search For Drivers'
Click on 'Browse My Computer'
The click on 'Let Me Pick From a List of Available Drivers'
Look for the driver dated 25/10/2008
Double Click 25/10/2008
It will install the driver and click 'Close'
If you check the Device Manager 'Ports & LPT' it should have changed to (pic below)
And Thus, Solving The Problem...
Let The Programming Begin...
Cheers
