Hi, I just created a account to say thank you.
It works perfectly on my old UA-25. (Method 1)
Thanks!!! 

Thanks. This works for the Cakewalk VS-20.

Method 2 worked well on the device EDIROL UA-25.
 Thanks a lot!

This all begs the question as to whether there are any "improvements" in the Roland/Edirol Windows 10 drivers that are absent for the driver hacks discussed above.
 
Yes, I know that there can't be any such improvements for "missing" drivers, but what I am getting at is whether there are features in Windows 10 for which older instruments cannot take advantage because their hacked drivers are really Windows 8x. not Windows 10. Or are the Windows 10 drivers basically just Windows 8x drivers with minimal mods to recognize the new build?

The driver only differs between different versions such as 1.0, 1.01, 1.2 and so on. From what i understand, that has nothing to do with what OS it is made for. So if the driver version of the win 8.1 and 10 driver is not the same it is most likely another driver.
 
As an example my UA25 did not support multi channel audio routing or whatever you call it in version 1.0 but did in 1.01

I have an Edirol FA-101 firewire audio interface and a 64 bit machine.  The FA-101 used to work fine under Windows 7 but today I upgraded to Windows 10 and the device is no longer being recognised.  I have downloaded the 64 bit Windows 8/8.1 driver from Roland and unzipped it, and would like to use your method to get the FA-101 working again.  But whenever I double click on the setup.exe file in the driver download, it says it cannot find the driver files and lists them.  The unzipped download has a top level folder called fa101_864d_v100, which contains Setup.exe, Uninstall.exe, and Readme.htm.  It also has two subfolders, Readme and Files.  The Files subfolder contains 16 files (including two .inf files); the files in this subfolder are the ones Setup says it cannot find.  I have tried copying the Setup.exe into the same folder as the driver files and double clicking it again but I still get the same problem.  Does anyone know what is going on please? 
 

I finally got Method 1 to work.  Thanks very much for the tip.  I'm not sure why it didn't work first time around, maybe a reboot IS needed after disabling Windows driver verification.  In the interim I had sent a support request to Roland who told me my product was not compatible with Win 10.  When I told them it was and they should update their Win 8 driver setup files in accordance with this thread, I got the usual corporate legalistic nonsense about them not supporting Win 10 with my product & not supporting modifications to their drivers.  Naturally I will now think long & hard before I buy another Roland product, but for now my Edirol FA-101 is working in Windows 10 very nicely thank you!

setup.dat does not exist. set up will abort. Done this step by step half a dozen times and it just does not work. help

OGG, have you done the STEP 4 for drivers to work ? I tried with the additional line (for the VS-700C) but it doesn't work.

I managed to get the VS-700C working in stand-alone mode on Windows 10 using the 8.1 driver, if you anyone is having trouble with that.

It worked for my Sonic Cell following this link (http://www.howtogeek.com/...all-unsigned-drivers/) to disable the signed peripheral thing and then the method one (changing the inf file and installing normally the driver). That's very cool because the Sonic Cell is still good sounding for some purposes andhas precious srx cards in it. It's a shame that Roland doesn't maintain this equipement to sell new stuff I will definitely not buy. Many thanks to this forum's help.

Sorry Bluenote I have no more 32bits windows to test.

OK - I got the link now thanks (just need to remove a bracket from the above hyperlink)

Murom do you hold on the shift key until you get the screen?

Nothing like reviving an old thread. I finally upgraded to Wiin 10 on my DAW.
 
I have a UA 25-EX and tried both methods. I had no luck. Device manager shows the UA 25-EX with the dreaded yellow triangle.
 
I have 2 questions:
 
My upgrade was from Win 7 Pro (64 bit) to Win 10 Pro (64 bit). Do I need to use/mod different drivers? This seems to be for Win 8 to Win 10 upgrades. I'm not sure that makes a diference.
 
What should the settings on the UA 25-EX be for success?
 
As an aside I tried the Win 10 update drivers to find the proper driver and it ran all night. No luck.
Very frustrating to say the least.
 

Registered just to say thank you.
This worked perfectly after win7 to win10 pro 64bit upgrade. (method 1)
I did need to re reboot, as someone mentioned above you need to uninstall the driver first, otherwise you have to run the uninstall in compatibility mode and it's more complex.  However I was able to figure it out.
 
thank you, thank you, thank you!

Awesome - Thank you
