libusb-win32 driver for Tacx T1932 appears to be working.

FortiusANT unable to find Garmin and Tacx ANT Dongles

Under device manager there were exclamation marks on the two ANT Dongles and windows could not find drivers for them.

So out of desparation, I tried Zadig. Now they are loading as USB Devices in device manager

but FortiusANT is still not able to find them.

Any suggestions?

I followed the instructions in the manual.

Thanks

I love it when I solve my own problems. I will leave this issue here in case it might help someone else.

I uninstalled the Zadig drivers in the Device Manager for the two usb ANT sticks.

Then I downloaded drivers direct from Garmin/Tacx (likely an older version of libusb).

https://support.garmin.com/en-CA/?faq=lhcXYdqFRP1bbumefCOf37

and followed the Method Two (Manual) procedures.

Voila! The correct libusb drivers for the Garmin/Tacx Ant sticks were installed!

FortiusANT is back and happy and I am happy and now I need to find an old ANT heart monitor...

Ride On!

Happy to hear this.

Question "old ANT heart monitor"; any ANT-HRM will do.
What CTP do you use?

FortiusAnt supports ble through -b or - bb, but some experimenting will be required.
-b using node.js is the complex path
-bb is less complex but the used libraries tend to change. Documentation is a starting point.

ANT HRM can be connected to CTP directly.

Tacx software does NOT need to be installed, and is usually more disturbing than helping

Since there is no communication here, I assume can be closed.
