TWCU does not work for Windows 8.1 it says -

Windows 7 works with my TL-WN8200N pretty well. Is there some version of TWCU compatible with windows 8.1?

If I'm running TWCU with windows 7 compatibility mode it runs but only if TL-WN8200N is not plugged in to USB.
Looks like TWCU conflicted with TL-WN8200N device.

Check on their official website or contact their technical support to confirm it. Sounds like a compatibility issue.

Hey All.

I also have this problem with this

TP-LINK TL-WN8200ND 300Mbps High Power Wireless USB Adapter

in

Windows 8.1

I think TP-Link should release a new Wireless Configuration Utility Compatible with Windows 8.1 to work with.

Thank You.

I agree but it is not necessary to install the utility to make the adapter work. Win 8.1 has a built-in utility which can be used to connect Wi-Fi.
By the way, the driver for Win 8 works OK on Win 8.1?
