Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm trying to connect a Thunderbolt 2 device to the Thunderbolt 4 port on my new ZBook Studio G8.  I'm using an Apple made Thunderbolt 3 to 2 adapter.

 

I know the adapter, cable and device are working correctly (they work when connected to a Dell Windows 10 laptop), but when I plug into my ZBook, nothing happens at all.  No notifications, sounds or anything.  The connected device just isn't recognised at all.

 

Has anyone experienced this?  Could it be that the Apple made adapter just doesn't work under Windows?
