My Canon PowerShot SX230 HS works fine and I was able to download my photos via USB port cable into my PC with Windows 10. I now have a new PC with Windows 11 and need the camera driver download to make my camera work again. Can anyone please help me ??? Thanks...

Greetings ,
The PowerShot SX 230hs is a 14-year-old camera and is no longer under support.
The software that it used was designed for earlier versions of Windows.
Software and manuals for your camera are available here:
Canon Support for PowerShot SX230 HS | Canon U.S.A., Inc. https://share.google/mREMKsP9af0YxV6lm
However, some of it might be too old to install or run on Windows 11.
If you want to try, visit the link above. Select downloads, Windows, Windows 10 64-bit.
Download camera window and see if it'll install. You can also try in compatibility mode.
Another option would be to buy a card reader. These are very inexpensive about $10. Take the card out of your camera, pop it into the card reader, and connect that to your computer. It will appear as a drive (mass storage device) and you can copy your photos from it to your PC drag and drop. You do not need any software to copy files from the card to your computer. I would opt for this method, especially if you want to continue using this camera in the long run.
Let us know if you have any questions. Happy New Year!
