I want to upgrade my 800 and I only have the Window 7 and seen where this wont work, but tried it anyway and sure enough it don't recognize the detector. I tried a few things and no go and wonder if I have to go and download windows 10 in order to upgrade my 800 or has someone come up with a way with the Window 7.

Right click on the .exe file in the directory to which it downloaded, and select "Analyze compatibility" (or something like that). It will select Windows XP mode. Let it run the app with what it selected, and it will work.
Been trying everything, or I thought and seen where I went into the actual program I downloaded from the Minelab site and there I was able to get the XP. It didnt take the first time and said there was a problem, so I tried it again with the coil more in the air so it wasnt chattering indoors and took it right away. Thanks to all that gave me tip to do it and now have a upgraded 800 ready to hunt.
