I am aware that having _software_ called FluxEngine and _hardware_ called
FluxEngine makes things complicated when you're not using the FluxEngine client
software with a FluxEngine board, but I'm afraid it's too late to change that
now. Sorry.
If you're using Windows
-----------------------
In order to access the GreaseWeazle from Windows, you need to install a WinUSB
driver for it. You can do this with the [Zadig](https://zadig.akeo.ie/)
program. Download it, plug in the GreaseWeazle, and run it; select Options,
List All Devices, and then open the big dropdown box and select the
GreaseWeazle. You should see something like this.

Ensure that the Driver boxes say `usbser` and `WinUSB`. Then press 'Replace
Driver'. Once done, the GreaseWeazle will be visible to the FluxEngine client.
**Important note!** Unfortunately, now, the original GreaseWeazle client won't
work --- you can't use both drivers at once. I'm working on this. To switch
back to the original driver, for using the GreaseWeazle client software
instead, open up Zadig again, go through the same process, but make sure the
left Driver box says `WinUSB` and the right one says `USB Serial (CDC)`. Now,
when you press 'Replace Driver' the original driver will be restored.
**If you were using a previous version on Windows** you might have installed
the WinUSB driver. That's no longer needed, and will in fact not work. You'll
need to use Zadig to restore the old driver; to do this, make sure the left
Driver box says `WinUSB` and the right one says `USB Serial (CDC)`. Then press
`Replace Driver`. You won't need Zadig any more.
