Uninstalling the dongle driver

This opens the System Properties window.

  • The dongle driver will be highlighted with a yellow question mark. (If you cannot see this because you have removed the dongle, close this window and plug the dongle back in. Now re-open this window using Start>Settings>Control Panel>System.)

  • Right-click the HASP dongle driver and select Uninstall (the HASP4 USB number may differ from that shown here).
