The write ups on manufacturer web sites are unfortunately not updated as time goes by. Perfect example was the Digitrax PR3/PR4.
Windows 10 install had you go thru hoops and ladders to install the driver that had to come from Digitrax.? Years later, Microsoft added the drivers to the Windows 10 update and from there on
installing the driver was a no brainner, it just went thru without a hitch.? The convoluted install process is still provided by Digitrax because some people do not let Microsoft update there installed
Operating System. Those people follow the Digitrax steps and end on there butt.
Sprog is no exception.. The install instruction date from 2015 and are the convoluted type.? Same as above, let Microsoft update your Windows 10 install and all will go well.? If the instructions were so simple to follow, you should not need them at all.
Many of the issues are caused by the USERS and there will always be exceptions to the rules.
Even the knowledgeable get side swiped.? Dave Sand, for a friend,? installs? WinXP, Java 1.8.0_066, JMRI 4.18 and a Locobuffer-USB on a computer and hits errors and crap.?
I do exactly the same here and encounter no issue at all.? Go figure.? We are both doing nothing convoluted, just a basic install from scratch.
