Boss published RC-300 Driver Ver.1.0.1 in May 2023, adding support for Windows 11¹. The update history lists the change as "Support for Windows(R) 11."¹

The download is titled "RC-300 Driver Ver.1.0.1 for Windows 10/11" and arrives as rc300_w11d_v101DL.zip, which extracts to an installer named Setup.exe¹. Boss states that the driver requires the RC-300 to be updated to Version 1.03 or later, and that the unit's USB Mode must be set to "AUDIO" to use it¹.

The driver supports Windows 11 and Windows 10; Windows 10 Mobile is not supported¹. It requires a Windows-compatible PC with a USB port, and Boss lists several exclusions: ARM-based PCs are not supported, it cannot be used in a virtual Windows environment, and Windows running on a Mac is not supported¹. The driver for Windows 10 (32-bit Edition) was not changed and remains at version 1.0.0¹.

The same May 2023 Windows 11 support update appears on Boss support pages for other products, including the ME-25 (Ver.1.0.1)², ME-80 (Ver.1.0.1)³, GT-1B (Ver.1.0.2)⁴ and GT-001 (Ver.1.1.1)⁵. The IR-200 page lists Ver.1.0.0 for Windows 10/11 with the same Windows 11 support note⁶, and the GT-100 Ver.2 Driver is listed at Ver.2.1.1⁷.
