2.0 has a problem with a lot of guy's (not only with SDRconsole), including me.
I have deinstalled v2 completely and reinstalled v1.19 wich works ok.

I have done the same thing here, but the error persists. Is there a specific path that Console is looking for as to where Omnirig is expected to be installed? Mine installed at C:\Program Files (x86)\Afreet\OmniRig

Hi, this is what i did,

Look in the Windows list of "installed programs" if there are more Omni-Rig versions installed. Uninstall them all.
Than delete the map C:\Program Files (x86)\Afreet\OmniRig

(*)
I don't know if you dare to edit the registry but at this point i deleted all keys in the registry that where related to OmniRig.
After this i did a reg clean up with CCleaner and Auslogics Reg Cleaner.
(*)

Reboot your PC and install OmniRig 1.19 again. Or 1.20 wich is the most current Afreet download.

I would do that but I have no other issues with other softwares accessing and running Omnirig.

Do as you like but please read this warning, SDRuno has problems to with the unofficial version 2 and higher. And i can confirm that it will give problems, also in combination with the official versions when you install both. https://www.sdrplay.com/sdruno/

Interesting. Everywhere it says v1.19 but DX Atlas has only v1.20. Where is v1.19?

1.19 is attached in a zip (100% free of virusus)

btw i didn't test 1.20 yet and that one could be good.
The problems start with v2.0 but as you can see these are not coming from the official Afreet website.
