My PC is running Windows 8.1 x64 and I tried multiple USB controllers/ports. ultra-sigma could see the scope in every case.

Hey Noircogi,
Thanks for the feedback.
Off the top of my head, I can think of 3 possible reasons:
* You are using an old version of the NI VISA runtime (It has to be >=v5.4)
* The serial number of your DSO does not start with "DS2D" (in which case it gets filtered out in the discovery process)
* There is a bug in the SW which makes it incompatible with your config.
What you can do:
* Check if there is an error log (ErrorLog.txt) in "[Installation folder]\Temp\" and if there is, please send it to me.
* If you used the variant with the built-in installer, there should be a log (NiVisa.log) generated by the NI VISA installer in "[Installation folder]\Installers\". It might be a good idea to take a look at it. If it says there was a problem during installation, you should try reinstalling the VISA 5.4 drivers manually.

Happy to host the full version, but these stupid download sites make me download it at home then upload it again, and after 100MB or so I gave up. If anyone wants me to bother, just ask.

They are stupid and I have no idea why people use them. I inherently distrust software served from these places. Legit software authors should know better.
* Amazon S3 (< $0.10/month for the traffic we'll create for a file this size.)
* Dropbox
* OneDrive
* Google Drive
* etc...
Rutger:
I am thinking about getting a Rigol DS1074z, will this utility work for the DS1000Z series scopes?
Thanks for writing the Utility!
Rigby:
No, but getting license keys for the DS1074Z is as easy as filling out a form.
This utility was generated because for this particular scope (the DS2000A series) it isn't so easy. This utility automates a bit of that into a wizard.
