  2. Once the update is installed, perform these steps:
    • Connect your Devio CR-1 via USB to your computer
    • On your computer, search for and open "Device Manager"
    • Expand the drop-down for "Audio inputs and outputs"
    • Delete any items that have "Devio" in the name
    • Disconnect the USB cable between Devio and your computer
