You need to downgrade to Windows 10 or use Windows Live Messenger 8.5 or earlier.

No you don’t. Run the patcher that’s linked in the Escargot/NINA Discord server.

no, because I have another computer with windows 11 that works with it

where is that one? . because I use the one that comes with the installer.

“that’s linked in the Escargot/NINA Discord server”

Join it, and scroll back a bit in the announcements channel. You’ll find it there.

ok, I will try

could you send me the link to the discord? I can’t find it.
