Unable to install latest Windows driver ver 7.5 M1

If you run the stand alone compatibility check from here, you should find the same problem, but it will create a log file in the same folder as the executable. If you can share the log file, it will tell us exactly which check is failing:

Attached is the compatibility check log file (Compressed in the zip). Thanks for your help.

There is a service called mctkmd still installed that is causing the check to fail.
Follow the steps here to check MCT software is uninstalled:

If it is removed from the program files, you still have the mctkmd service hanging around. I think you can uninstall it with:

And type: "sc delete mctkmd"

Hopefully that should fix it.

I never did see the MCT install package so I wasn't able to uninstall that directly (this was the first thing I tried yesterday). Your pointer to delete the service seemed to remove it but it looks like there is still something preventing the DisplayLink install as I still get the same error message. Attached is my new compatibility log... could you tell me what else is holding things up? Alternately, if you tell me everything it looks for, I can do a clean sweep of any straggling services, reg settings, files, etc.

Its now finding a service called mctkmdldr.

Have you installed other USB graphics software on this PC before? It looks like left over MCT software, but I don't see anything in your programs list.

It would be nice to uninstall this properly rather than manually removing services...

I did have a previous USB->HDMI device and likely had this software. I thought I uninstalled it back then and I'm not sure why so many things lingered.

Anyways, after deleting the final service you suggested, I'm good now. Thanks for you help.

I followed the thread above and still not able to install software. Getting the message that other USB software is installed. I did have some of the services running that were mentioned above and have gone in to the CMD prompt at ran the sc delete command.

I am attaching the last log file for you to look at and tell me what service is still running to cause the install fail.

Thanks for your help,
