Manual Installation of Push 2 Display Driver

Under certain circumstances, the Push 2 Display driver cannot be installed automatically by Live. In this case, it is still possible to do that manually.

To do so, run the installer by double clicking the Push2-display-driver-installer executable from the Ableton Live Program Folder, which is located under:

C:\ProgramData\Ableton\Live 11 Suite\Redist

Please note that the ProgramData folder is hidden by default on Windows, thus it is necessary to enable the OS to display hidden files and folder.

On some systems, it might be necessary to run this process as Administrator. This option is available via the context menu by right clicking on the driver installer.
