Fix power delivery for MacOS Catalina 10.15
Now power delivery is working unstable.
I have a dell d6000 dock. After update to Catalina and upgrade to latest displaylink driver my macbook can suddenly stop having power delivery from dock.
Please enable power delivery, or disable it. I want stable environment.

What worked for me is to disable System Preferences > Energy Saver > Battery > Enable Power Nap while on Battery Power; Before doing this, the external display would constantly (flicker) go dark, then come back on again. when using the closed lid clamshell mode.Model Name: MacBook Air 7.2 (2015)
Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.2 GHz
Memory: 8 GBDisplaylink Manager version 1.0.0 Build 54.71
Dell Universal Dock D6000 Product ID is 0x6006 and Version is 31.27Go ahead and test to see if it helps to solve problem with Clamshell Mode after installing Displaylink Manager Version 1.0.0;

"You need to apply firmware from a windows Machine, I don't think Dell it will create a Mac version at all." So are you saying connect to a PC and download the firmware then hook back up to my mac?
