[QUOTE="groovybaby, post: 1294932, member: 162270"] In Dec 2020: I purchased 2 remotes for my new HTPC install, eg: HP USB MCE IR RC6 Wireless Receiver and TSGH-IR02 Windows Media Center remote Dell MCE RC6 IR Remote Control USB Receiver Microsoft Windows Media Center Kit The Dell kit wouldn't work on my main PC or the MP HTPC (Both W10 OS) The HP kit worked OK until recently, when some of the well-used keys started become unusable. I checked online for an exact HP replacement, but that HP Remote is no longer listed. I re-tried the Dell kit, which still doesn’t work on my MP HTPC. So I connected it to may main PC, and it still doesn’t work, even though a windows popup says that the receiver is recognised and installed. Both these remotes are designed to work with the Windows Media Center, which is no longer part of the W10 OS install. But I assume it is installed as part of the MP software, because my HP remote does work with MP. So I was puzzled as to why the Dell remote doesn’t work on my MP?: I did some checking, and it seems that this remote was supplied with a particular Dell PC, but lots of people have been unable to get that remote to work on other PC's with Windows Media Center, so this may be a driver issue? So I need to order a new remote: Q: So which current remotes are known to work well with MP? Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
