How to UnInstall the Driver programmatically

NTDEV
1

Hi all

I want to unintall the WDM driver ( like USB device ) programmatically. The
remove example in WinDDK , checks for the Devices that are present in the
system before uninstalling . Is there any other way to uninstall the driver
even when the Device is not there ? Any body can let me know what we can do
for this ?

Thanks in advance

Device once I found an Hardware ID equivalent . I am trying to find a way to
uninstall even when the Device is not present .

Do not know how do you get HDEVINFO and SP_DEVINFO_DATA for your device but
if you use SetupDiGetClassDevs then do NOT include DIGCF_PRESENT flag into
the Flags parameter and you’ll get a set of all devices including
non-present ones.
