I have found a driver package for WinCE6 - are there also drivers for WEC7 available ?

We do not support Windows Embedded Compact 7, we only support Windows Embedded Standard(x86) and in the near future the W10 IoT (ARM based). You could try to use the CE6 drivers, but we do not support and never tested them on WEC7.

Could you please advice which driver we should use for Windows 8 Embedded?
Thanks

Windows Embedded 7, Windows Embedded 8 and Windows 10 IoT (
not the Core Version) use our standard driver.
For W7 please use this
driver-setup
For W8.1/W10 use this
driver-setup
(keep in mind that we only support official from Microsoft maintenaced OS Systems)

I am having this error when I try to install your version for W8 above(see please attachment). Looks like it says that W8 is not supported by this driver.

Then please use the W7 Driver (will also work) - looks like the needed Root Certification is not available in your W8.0 Embedded Version.
We still support with the 4.2.3 the Windows 8.1

I have the same problem for W7 version. Do you know how I can resolve this issue?

No - Sorry - then the system you use is to old and outdated. Send us a E-Mail - we could give you a link to 4.0.xx drivers - maybe they work- Do you want to use CAN-FD Hardware, or is CAN2.0a/b OK for you - then you could try the latest
3.x driver

Thanks, looks like 3.x driver works well. System was able to recognize the converter. We use Windows 8 Embedded, as I understand it is never then W7 but older than W8.1. So it is question why it is too old for the driver for W7

But anyway I am happy that it works now. Thanks for your quick response and help.

W8 was early replaced by W8.1 - which is still supported by our current drivers. W8 is NOT W8.1 !
