ALH!
I have a (probably) small problem. I used to work with RTL and SDR#/HDSDR on one of the available ports USB. All fine. I want to change the USB port and now I lost the possibility to use SDR#. HDSDR sees the device and works properly. SDR# can not find device (of course both aren't working at the same time).
I uninstalled RTL in Device Manager, plugged into "new" sockt", used "auto install" driver with zadig and also after extraction of drivers files, but it doesn't solve the problem.
Where could I find the solution? SDRSharp.exe.Config?
Thanks!

Are you using borth HDSDR and SDRSharp at the same time or switch between them?  I have no problem switching USB port using SDRSharp, so the problem might be HDSDR...

Ok, I just needed to be certain.  I'm not sure how to proceed, but you could uninstall both software, reinstall SDRSharp and test that if i works in different USB ports. If it does, you can install HDSDR. If, after that, you cannot switch ports again, then it has to be HDSDR installation that does something that prevents SDRSharp from working with different ports.....

Someone else that knows more about how these software works could help...

I have installed SDR# again, without any success. Because of SDR# plugins availabilty, I'd like to use this application, and HDSDR (which works properly on both USB ports), only occasionally. So I'm waiting for other solutions, if possible ;-)

I'm not running the latest version (I have 1.0.0.792) which works perfectly in all USB ports. There might be something in the newer versions that causes this... I don't know.  I hope it's solved for you.

I used to try the newest and some older versions (fe. 1.0.0.100). Reinstalation of HDSDR doesn't solve the issue.
