I have a new PC with Windows 11 Pro and had correctly installed the old 2015 driver for my DN-MC6000 controller, but yesterday, July 1, 2026, Windows blocked the driver saying it doesn’t comply with the new security policies. Does this mean I can no longer use my controller with Traktor? I checked the DenonDJ page and there are no new drivers!!! Seriously, DENON, a brand I really respected, no longer lets me use my controller? Should I throw it in the trash?

Please reply to me as soon as possible, this is a very, very serious matter.

Hello Matteo, Welcome to the forum.
It’s not Denon fault, but Microsoft.
DN-MC6000 is discontinued in 2013 - no one is making drivers for this product since then. And since 2014 Denon is owned by inMusic, where inMusic is not obligated to make any drivers for the previous company holders. You should be happy, that it worked for 13 years without drivers updates…
Now back to windows - rolling back to previous windows version should solve your issue, if it was working on windows before.

Are you saying I should throw my controller in the trash? Or that I shouldn’t update my Windows because I might get viruses or ransomware? Absurd and unbelievable! What’s the difference between a Mercedes and any other car? I can always find spare parts! I don’t want to believe the conclusion is to throw my controller away. If Inmusic wants to retain my respect for the brand, they should find a solution!

Or perhaps you can accept that some products don’t get support forever?
Comparing support for these devices is not a fair comparison at all.

You can create dual boot with windows 7, or 10 or xp without access to internet and still use mc6000 drivers on that second windows

You are talking about the cheap controller… I had to sell my 3 mixers, because of end of support by apple. Example: Allen & Heath Xone DB4, was back in the days very good mixer for Traktor - but support by apple went out the window with an update, mixer was discontinued, allen was not doing anything. So… time for a new mixer it was…
