Windows 11 might require an additional step to disable kernel protection, which could be incompatible with Renesas' drivers?
The specific steps are:
Open Windows Security Center - Click on Device security - Click on Kernel Isolation details - Turn off the Memory integrity option. You will need to restart your computer after doing this.
After the firmware update, if you want to re-enable kernel protection, you also need to uninstall the previously installed Renesas drivers. There is a device with "Renesas" at the beginning in Device Manager; you can simply uninstall it. If the USB cable has already been disconnected at this point, you can click on the "View" menu in Device Manager and then open "Show hidden devices". This will allow you to see the Renesas devices that were previously hidden.
