I’ve been wrestling with this for a few weeks now. A Windows 11 update in February resulted in the failure of my QU7’s DAW control to be recognized in Pro Tools. I did a bit of research and found that this had happened to many people using various MIDI desks and devices.
I uninstalled the update, and Pro Tools recognized the 4 DAW control MIDI ports in the MIDI devices menu. However, every subsequent Windows security update (5 of them) has resulted in the same problem occuring. So I am uninstalling each update as the appear.
I know that Microsoft is doing some major work on MIDI 2.0, but surely this loss of functionality isn’t acceptable?
I have the latest drivers and A&H MIDI Control installed. I previously used the QU32 in my studio for a decade, and have had the QU7 for 8 months now. Everything was working perfectly and sounding great on this new desk up until a few weeks ago
I installed the latest update, ran the MIDI checker which said “successfully tested connectivity to service” so I followed your instructions, but after downloading the winRT powershell, I still have no MIDI settings in Windows, and no DAW Ports in Pro Tools.
I noticed in the checker there is a note saying you might get “an incorrect positive from this test”, so that could be my problem?
Thanks, but this link didn’t give me anything new…except that I went into the discord and started looking around.
I found the following and tried it, it worked for me:
And what exactly needs to be done (after I already have the one in my previous post: Windows Update + Windows.MIDI.Services.SDK.Runtime.and.Tools.1.0.16-rc.3.3-x64.exe):
