Supposedly you can update the firmware (if needed) and program the Metra ASWC-1 (actually Axxess Interfaces) with a Windows PC. Yeah right.

Anyone tried?

Windows 10 PC either doesn't recognize the device or doesn't have drivers for it. Had to install the Visual C++ 2010 redistributable just to get the Axxess updater to launch without error. Which is no where in their documentation or website. It flashes red/green real fast for a few seconds and slows down, but the Axxess update can't recognize the device.
What version of Windows are you running?
