IRDA and Windows 11

[Keith Waugh]

Forgive me for being stupid, but how/where do I install the Sigmatel USB-IRDA Dongle Driver??

It plugs into the respective USB port on your laptop / computer.
If you only have USB C ports you may need a USB C to A adaptor.

I'm sorry, you've lost me. I'm referring to the actual Sigmatel driver software which I downloaded from the link you put up. I have the Scubapro Smarttrak Dongle which I always used to download the dives from my Dive Computer in to Smarttrak on a Windows 10 Computer.

My bad, I thought you were referring to the physical device.
For the driver, in windows, open device manager, find the dongle in the device list, right click and you will see an option to update driver, browse to the location where you downloaded the driver.

Excellent. Thanks, I will try it out. Sorry to mess you around and waste your time.

Nothing to be sorry about.
I always say, "the only stupid questions are the ones you don't ask" lol.
Good luck with this.
