CH control manager still work?

[Stilgar75]

Hi, i have a old CH pro throttle that i used with windows 7, now i tried to use it with windows 10

first attempt, i connected the CH to use, windows discover it how generic "input device USB", i can see the CH throtter from the panel "USB gaming device" of windows 10, then i run CH control manager but it cant recognize the throttle

second attempt i installed a driver, windows now see the device how "CH pro throttle Hardware" it from the panel "USB gaming device", but CH control manager see the throttle, i can calibrate it, check the button and axis, but when i load a profile on the device the program say "OK" but the throttle dont go in mapped mode, and nothing appened, and i dont see the sound of windows the recognize the CH new device started

So at the moment CH controll manager see the device, but is blocked in off mode, i cant change in mapped mode or in direct mode.

There is a way to solve the problem?

I’m sorry but I don’t know how to help you. I have CH Fighter Stick, Throttle and Pedals. Everything works as they should including the manager. I know there have been reports of issues with these and Windows 10 and there is a lot of stuff on the net so hopefully there is something that will help you. Just wanted to make sure you know they do work. 
 

Here is something in the il2 forum that might help.

I would recommend you post on the ATAG forum and/or do a search there.

I am sure this was discussed at some point.

For Win10 you need CH Control manager version think it's 4.55a. The one with an "a" anyway. It's the only one that will work with Win10. I think I recall you have to disable the Microsoft store app too. I also have CH app that runs at startup think it's called jstart. I remember jumping thru some hoops to get my old CH throttle running with CHCM but it will. Pretty sure I found out how searching on here. Been a while.

Hello,

I collected this data when I was running W10 --- CH MAnager OK:

 

problemes CH control manager windows 10

 

Restoring an old version of Windows sounds like a bad idea. You won't get security fixes and whatnot.
I came across this potential solution a few minutes ago on Reddit, so I'm spreading the word:

 

Post 1:

When the buttons grey out, sign out of windows and then sign back in.
The devices will reinitialize and Control Manager will be in the mode you had tried to switch to.

 

Post 2:

Turn off and Disable the Windows Service called SysMain. That fixes all the issues.
It gets reenabled by updates though.

*Edited for better wording.*

The service has something to do with precaching for the windows metro apps.
If the buttons grey out again, just open the Windows Store app. Disabling SysMain completely fixes it.

 

Post 3:

Killing the Microsoft Store process in the task manager literally fixed every single problem
I've had with Control Manager in Windows 10.

"SysMain" is SuperFetch service, how disable:

I only used "Post 2:" and CH Manager worked again.

 

Hope it helps.

 

Have fun
