I have two laptops running Windows 10, latest version and Express 7.13.10.
Express will discover and update my GPS 64S my Oregon 550 and 650t on my laptop, which are mass storage devices, so I know the USB ports and cables are OK.
I have tried running Express as Administrator and in compatibility mode.
I have deleted and reloaded Express and the Garmin USB drivers. Express discovered all my other devices.
My laptop will find the 305 in Device Manager as a Garmin GPS Device but will not be discovered in Express.
The event log says:

Both laptops are running the same Virus checker and Firewall settings. The first Express used to work on the first laptop. It stopped working after an express update.
Any help to get it working will be appreciated.
