Hi,
Does anybody have any idea on how to remove driver (and related files) from
DriverStore folder on Windows Server 2008/Vista machines.
I am under the suspicion that after fixing my null pointer bug, my previous
driver from DriverStore is getting loaded.
I am using “UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevice” for updating the driver.
Regards
Deepak

I am not certain but SetupUninstallOEMInf might do this for you.

Try this command line on your OS, as you are probably not using the one I am using, but this tool debuted with the driver store on Vista...
I assume you can figure out the rest from there.
pnputil.exe [-f | -i] [-? | -a | -d | -e]
Examples:
pnputil.exe -a a:\usbcam\USBCAM.INF -> Add package specified by USBCAM.INF
pnputil.exe -a c:\drivers*.inf -> Add all packages in c:\drivers<br>pnputil.exe -i -a a:\usbcam\USBCAM.INF -> Add and install driver package
pnputil.exe -e -> Enumerate all 3rd party packages
pnputil.exe -d oem0.inf -> Delete package oem0.inf
pnputil.exe -f -d oem0.inf -> Force delete package oem0.inf
pnputil.exe -? -> This usage screen
Thanks a lot Bob.
It does work!!!
Cheers
Deepak
