XPS 15 9500, DMC not working?

Thanks, it works with Vostro like this (of course):

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Store" /v StoreContentModifier /f /t REG_SZ /d "DELL_VOSTRO"

The 1st command was not necessary.

Anyway, I do not think we should do this. DELL should.

I agree that Dell should, but I'm also curious as to why some systems have this problem and some do not.

Hello Dell G7 (7590) Same Issue

Did you try the solution above substituting "DELL_G7" for "DELL_XPS"?

Yes, I tried @Mike Schmieg .

Hello

Didn't work on a Dell G7 (7590)
Although I even tried typing "DELL_G7" instead of "VOSTRO"

I'm not that computer savvy, at least Windows savvy, to have figured it out on my own. I suspected that it was something in the registry, but I wasn't positive of that. I blocked out a couple of hours to do nothing but google searches for combinations of words including Dell Mobile Connect, does not meet minimum requirements, fails to load and a number of others. I finally found a site which offered several solutions to this exact problem. Unfortunately, I did not note the URL and I since have not been able to find it again. I did keep notes as to several of the suggested solutions and posted the one here that worked. The one I posted was for the Dell XPS, but the same applies for other Dells, you just have to use "DELL_INSPIRON" or "DELL_G7" or whatever your model designation is. It also works for Vostro doing the same thing.

Hello,

Yes, I did run the command as Administrator and I do have all the keys as you described, but not working for me

Did it add the keys to the registry? If not, you can manually do that. If the keys were properly added and it's still not working, I have no idea unless there is a different problem for some. This is the report that the machine does not meet the minimum standards for the software, correct?

I finally found a solution to this problem on my machine. Apparently, the new version of DMC has a new identification requirement which was resolved by opening an administrator level command prompt and entering the following two commands.

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Store" /v OEMID /f /t REG_SZ /d DELL

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Store" /v StoreContentModifier /f /t REG_SZ /d "DELL_XPS"

This returned operations to normal without even requiring a reboot.

THIS WORKED FOR ME!!! 

THANK YOU!

No need to uninstall, just run the 3.0 version.  All is well with the world again.

Found this on Reddit and it worked brilliantly on my 9500.
