SOLVED Cable Matters USB 3.0 Data Transfer on Windows 10 x64

Post by *ElGuille »

Hello.

I bought the "Cable Matters USB 3.0 Data Transfer Cable" at Amazon. I´m using Windows 10 x64 on both PC.

When i plug the cable into either computer, windows doesn´t recognize the cable (Unknown USB Device), and therefore i can't use Port Conection on TotalCommander ("Connect Failed!" message). Do I need to install any drivers first?

Thanks.


EDIT: SOLVED! After pluging and unpluging the USB Cable Matters several times, finally Windows 10 recognized the USB cable as "PCLINQ5" and now Total Commander Port Conection works fine! It was not necessary to install any driver.

According to https://www.ghisler.com/cables/ installing drivers shouldn't be necessary. Perhaps you have a faulty cable, but wait for responses from people with more experience. What kind of USB ports did you try, USB 2 or 3?
