Topic: Totalmix doesn't instal

Hi

I'm bit of a newb to rme. We've recently got an FF800 in our studio. After I installed the driver nothing happens and i cant find Totalmix anywhere on my computer. I've tried multiple times with no luck. I'm sunning a PC win11.

Re: Totalmix doesn't instal

Isn't the icon in the taskbar ?
[Mod edit: Invalid for Windows Totalmix is a program located in the program folder ]
Sure the computer has established valid connection to the FF800 ?
Is it showing up in the device manager ?

Re: Totalmix doesn't instal

TotalMix and RME Fireface Settings apps are not installed to the Programs folder like a normal application. These are considered "startup items" and as such, they will appear in the System Tray instead. Bottom right corner of the screen, to the left of the clock you should see the ^ icon. Click that and the hidden startup item icons will be shown. That is where you find the RME apps.

... and if not, check Autostart options, sometimes things aren't active there. You will find the actual applications in windows\system32, you can try to run them from there.

Re: Totalmix doesn't instal

That's not another issue, that's the reason. The driver will not get activated by Windows before the hardware is recognized. What happened so far is called pre-install.
