Hi,

If your Pickit2 is detected as HID device it means from PC side it is OK.
The error message you see can be due to lots of different reasons but the number one is that there is some issue on your hardware side.

1/ wrong ICSP connections
2/ wrong PIC reference selected
3/ incorrect reset circuitry
4/ damaged ICSP on pickit2
5/ unsupported PIC

Best is to test the same hardware on another machine to make sure board + pickit2 are fine.
Using some tools like USBdeview you can remove the Pickit2 driver and plug it back so that it reinstalls

Which SW do you use ?

Pickit2 is a very old tool which has been released to open source community. It does not support lots of recent PICs. You may want to consider to buy the successor Pickit3 which supports are PICs ;=)

regards

I explain wrong the problem,I apologize.
The GUI is the problem,won't start,the GUI should start even the Pickit is not connected to PC.I suspect Visual C++ library or NetFramework.
