- Insert the USB device into your computer/laptop.
- If Windows doesn't automatically install the device, you will need to go to the Device Manager and look for the device that will most likely have a exclamation mark next to it because the drivers were not installed.
- From here right click on the device in the device manager, and manually install the driver for the device using the driver you extracted to your computer.
