What outcome were you hoping for?

Just received a Hackrf Pro. Hoping to get it working consistently. Hoping for some insight as to what I have done wrong and didn't see any other answers that were the same as this issue.

What outcome actually happened?

Initially had the HackRF Pro working with GnuRadio Companion and Airspy using Win 11. Shut down the PC, rebooted later and neither would work. The HackRF Pro lights appear normal, it is recognized by Windows but no data was analyzed by either GnuRadio Companion or Airspy. Tried updating to version 2026.01.3 abd now the unit fails the self test. Tried on two different PCs running Win 11.

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Windows 11
