Magico Dcsd Cable Driver Windows 10 Guide

Microsoft tightened driver policies in mid-2021. Prolific-based Magico cables are most affected. Use Prolific driver v3.8.25 with the PL2303_Prolific_GPS_1013 workaround (edit the .inf file: change PL2303 to PL2303_GPS in all sections).

If driver installation fails repeatedly, use a virtual machine with an older Windows version: magico dcsd cable driver windows 10
