    Hello.
    Suddenly this error started happening.
    I tried uninstalling all X-rite parts including removing traces with Revo Uninstaller. Did the same thing with Display Cal but not help.
    Tried moving the Argyii folder to program files…did not help.
    Not sure what is going on.

    Hi,

    please grab the 2018-08-23 Argyll v2.02b development snapshot (see sticky topic in this forum) and try again, without changing any DisplayCAL settings (other than using the newer Argyll, obviously), then attach the log (it will probably produce a similar failure, but with a different err code which I’m interested in). Thanks.

    Yes, thanks. Error 32 is ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION, i.e. some other process is using the device. Make sure that no other process is accessing your i1D3, uninstall X-Rite devices service if present, and check any other programs that you’re using that might access USB devices. Restarting the system, or un-plugging and re-plugging the instrument may also help.

    So frustrating. I uninstalled all x-rite, rebooted, tried all ports (USB2 and 3). Removed any plugged USB device. Still get the error 32 . Not sure how to identify which program can be using it and seriously not sure how any program be using it at this point. :/
    I hate having to go back to i1Display software

    Not sure how to identify which program can be using it

    Candidates to check are programs that are running in the background that are not part of Windows (e.g. Virus scanners, Firewalls, “Monitoring” programs etc).

    Tried shutting everything down. No luck. Guess I will go back to Xrite for the time being. :/
    Thanks for helping though 🙂

    Forgot to say, if X-Rite devices service is on the system, that is a likely culprit.

    Nope I removed all X-rite software (which in fact was always there and working fine before) but now even with all of it removed and all traces gone, no service showing etc, still get the error. So weird :/

    I had this exact error with my ColorMunki Display too. I managed to trace which process was conflicting by checking the System event log for event ID 225. This told me that it was my Gigabyte motherboard LED software (How!? Why!?) – RGBFusion.exe. Once I killed that process, DisplayCal works fine.

    Badly written software most likely. Motherboard tools are generally somewhat notorious for their poor quality from a software dev standpoint, probably because they seem to be produced “on the cheap” with not much if anything spent on QA. If such a tool does anything even remotely USB-related, it may happen that it opens but never releases a handle to a generic USB HID device like the i1D3, thus preventing access by other software. I think this may be one of the reasons X-Rite device manager exists: It runs with system privileges and can thus forcefully grab the instrument when the need arises.

    Confirmed. First uninstall RGBFusion – that didnt help, but then i killed the process AURA – driver for my Gigabyte 2080 and everything was fine.

    Thanks for the solution.

    You have to turn off several Gigabyte tools for the software to work, like all the RGB, and if you have a Gigabyte video card, like the 2070 Super, the engine for that has to be turned off.  Blaming this on Gugabyte and telling us that they are notorious for bad software is a poor excuse.  I have over 50 apps, and they all work with Gigabyte, and XRite works just fine with Gibabyte tools.   The Displaycal software is poorly written and poorly updated, for 2 years now this has been going on with Displaycal.

    Thanks for your input, but the reason that it works with X-Rite is that they use a daemon that grabs the device before anything else can. And you are very clearly not in a position where you can judge the quality of software. If I tell you something is crap, I do not do that out of some hunch, but because I actually have the expertise and insight required to judge these things. So, yes, the Gigabyte software is poorly written, because it should not just grab any unknown USB devices. It is up to them to fix this (probably won’t happen, this crapware is produced a dime a dozen for various vendors and there is exactly zero incentive for them to invest time and money into it).

    Right, everybody is crap except you.  Give me a break and fix your crapware.
