It's likely the CANUSB drivers did not automatically download from windows and you can just manually install them yourself.
On Windows 10,
with the CANBUS plugged into your computer, open the start menu and search "device manager", and you will likely see a section in the middle called "Other devices" and it will probably be the CANUSB thing.
That DLL you moved from that folder ALSO contains drivers for the CANUSB (in addition to the DLL). We will install those drivers, so make sure you have that file/folder downloaded.
These next steps are tricky, so make sure you don't get down the wrong decision tree. It's also semi-from-memory so you may have a slightly different option to choose.
- Right click on it, click Update driver
- Choose "Browse my computer for drivres"
- Choose "Let me pick from a list of available drivers...
- Choose "Have Disk"
- Choose Browse
- Select the folder/file (*.inf file) of the drivers you downloaded and click "ok"
- This will probably say the driver is signed and have a little row there loaded of the driver and you click "finish" or something.
- NOW your CANUSB thing should have a slightly different color light pattern and the software will recognize the cart (with the key on).
