Viscosity problems on Windows 10
Got a problem with Viscosity or need help? Ask here!
Hi,
I am having problems with Viscosity on Windows 10. It installs ok and I can import a connection but when I try and connect the details windows says that it is 'Creating....' and after some time it states that I need to be an admin, I am using the admin account and I still have the problem. I have no anti-virus running and cannot figure out what is wrong. The adapter shows up in device manager but that is about it.. Not sure what to do. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.
