I didn't say reboot it, I said reboot it in 'safe mode' as per the instructions. You could also try connecting to the console UART to see if the myRIO is booting up correctly - as per the manual I linked to.

Have you tried the myRIO on another PC? Do you know someone else that has a myRIO and you could try plugging it into their PC / plug theirs into yours?

Apologies. I meant "rebooted in safe mode". Yes I did that but still MAX shows nothing. Tried migrating entire setup on another PC but still myRIO isn't detectable. I have no clue what is wrong. I cannpt even reinstall software inside myRIO to check what was missing unless MAX detects it either through USB or WIFI.

The USBLAN adapter is not automatically assigning default IP address 172.22.11.2 to itself. Moreover it's not showing as a discrete LAN connection. 
To use UART console I'd need UART-USBconvertor to shift voltage level and read it on my PC.

The USBLAN adapter that ships with myRIO is from Belcara Tecnologies. Maybe there's something wrong with this driver which is not supporting windows 10. Sad thing is I don't have any previous Windows versions running in any of my systems.

So it turned out that my VMware's Virtual network bridge was blocking USBLAN connection somehow. After removing this bridge connection, I got myRIO working like a charm once again. 🙂
