Hello everyone! I’m a newbie to SharpCap so apologies if my query is easily resolved. I want to ask how to enable the scope control? Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Barry and welcome
In general you first need ASCOM. This is a package you install which allows multiple kinds of astro hardware to be addressed, including mounts.
For info and download, see
https://ascom-standards.org/index.htm.
Once installed, SharpCap can communicate with your mount, see for explanation
https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#GOTO Mount Control.
But mount manufacturers sometimes have their own things too, so what's your mount?
