Greetings,

I have migrated from Windows Vista to Windows 8 like a month ago. I am finding Windows 8 okay but for the last 2 days on startup I see an error from DSLR remote capture software. I installed it a couple of days ago. Any ideas on how to solve this?

DSLR Remote Pro for Windows  Unable to release shutter.

Unable to release shutter.

This may because the AF was unable to lock.

If you are seeing this error every time you start your computer, check again if the trial days are still ok and not yet exhausted. Normally, DSLR Remote Pro for Windows has only or gives only 15 days for its trial version. If you are using the trial version, it is important to check the remaining days since it has a short demo period.

Check when you first installed DSLR Remote Pro for Windows. If you still have remaining days, another possible reason why you receive this error is the version of the program since you are using the latest version of Microsoft Windows. The latest version of DSLR Remote Pro for Windows no longer supports older camera models like Canon EOS 20D, Canon EOS 5D, or Canon EOS 350D/Rebel XT if you are installing it on Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8.

For computers running on 32-bit Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 with older camera models such as these, you need to install DSLR Remote Pro for Windows 2.4.
