I was able to install the latest V8 and V7 apps on Windows 11, however it cannot detect the USB to the FlashScan V2.

Detailed setup:
- Apps V8 (V8.3.22) and V7 (V7.5.48)
- FlashScan V2 with the latest firmware (V2.08.189) and boot block (V2.08.009)

Questions:
(1) Is there a USB driver to support Windows 11 for FlashScan V2?
(2) Does FlashScan V3 support Windows 11?
(3) Is there any support for Windows 11?

Windows 11 is supported. I have been using windows 11 for a while now.

Thanks. I suspect it could have been a bad connection for the USB-C to USB-A connector when i was in the car. I just tested it at my desk and it was able to connect to the V2.

I got it working when connected to the car too. Here's the odd series of events:
- V2 FlashScan connected to the OBDII
- Opened V8, attempted to connect to the V2 FlashScan and got the "cannot detect any FlashScan".
- Closed V8.
- Disconnected the OBDII.
- Opened V8, attempted to connect to the V2 FlashScan = SUCCESS.
- Closed V8.
- Connected the OBDII
- Opened V8, everything works now - logging, tune calibration flash, etc

Note: This is the first time that I connected this new tablet, so not sure if that has anything to do with it.

I am starting to get closer to the issue. It appears to be a Windows 11 + USB-C issue with powering on the V2 FlashScan while the OBDII is connected and the car is off. See my test cases below.
I'm going to do some more research on why it is not powering it on - not detecting it, not sending power through the USB-C, ..?

Detailed setup:
- Apps V8 (V8.3.22) and V7 (V7.5.48)
- FlashScan V2 with the latest firmware (V2.08.189) and boot block (V2.08.009)
- EFI Controller: LS1B

OBDII Connected
USB connected to device?
Key On?
Car running?
Result: V2 FlashScan powered on?


Windows 10
USB-A 3.0
Yes
Yes, connected after OBDII was connected
Yes
No
Yes - expected result


Windows 11
USB-C, 3.0
Yes
Yes, connected after OBDII was connected
Yes
No
No



For the Windows 11 test, I had to unplug the OBDII, then plugin back in to get the V2 FlashScan powered on.
