IMHO, it’s not such a big deal to delete oem*.inf files. By deleting them,
you just make Windows forget about those past installations infs.
And if a driver is already installed, it won’t affected it (infs are only
accessed during device installations).
A couple of times in the past, I had to delete those files because I had
problems with hardware id matching with some old versions of my inf. It’s
also useful to delete them if you want to test installing on a clean
machine. But you can’t really beat a good old reghost

The source code for DevCon is in the DDK, just use the part that is used for
the uninstall or whatever.
You should not delete the OEM*.INF unless you are really sure of what you
are doing. You might get the wrong one if multiple devices have been
installed.

DevCon is doing even more job than I need, but I need a code example.
During installation process file OEM*.INF is created in INF folder. Beside
SetupCopyOemInf() is there any other function that creates this file? I
believe this file is used in uninstallation process (am I wrong?). Who
should delete this file?
Thank you
Leonid
