Turning Point Clickers Orphaned by Windows 10 @turningtech

Wednesday, November 18, 2015

I was just doing some testing of a remote polling session for a class this week so took my Turning Point RF Receiver and plugged it in to a Windows 10 desktop - yes its marketed as driver free (and hassle free) installation. Just plug and play. And indeed it would have done if I wasn’t on a Windows 10 machine.

Yes Turning Point DONOT support Windows 10 for their software and, for my receiver model at least, it appears to been have orphaned. It remains to be seen whether their new receivers support Windows 10 (they don’t actually state that) or whether they will release a driver for Windows 10. Support were, of course, ambiguous in terms of promising any future compatibility.

Poor effort and I can only say that its definitely more reliable using an online service such as PollEverywhere.
