removing the message device driver software was not successfully installed

Hi,

I’ve written a virtual device reader driver. When I insert a device into
this reader with sending IOCTL to the driver the message “device driver
software was not successfully installed” appears on the screen. Everything
works good, However I like to get the message removed. How can I do this?

Best,

\Windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log will tell you what went wrong.

When a device is inserted into your reader, do you create a new PDO?
The implication here is that the PDO you are creating is not getting a
driver. If it doesn’t need a driver, then you can add the hardware ID
to your INF file with a null service.
