Proper removal of device drivers from a computer

Device drivers are usually hidden in the device manager as soon as the device turns off or gives a command to hide it (despite the fact that they are still installed in the system). Very often, the "like" drivers conflict because of inconsistencies between versions, etc.

The method of cleaning the list of unused devices: (Already tested by many and gives good results when nothing helps to "see" a working "device."
0. Disconnect all external USB devices from the computer.
1. Create an environment variable named DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES with a value of 1.
For this: 1.1. Right-click on the “My Computer” icon (My Computer) and select “Properties” (Properties).
1.2. In the dialog that opens, go to the Advanced tab and click on the Environment Variables button.
1.3. On the Environment Variables panel at the top of the dialog box, click the New button.
1.4. In the "Variable Name" field, type (better copy from here) DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES, and in the "Variable value" field, enter 1.
1.5. Press the “OK” button twice in a row.)

The created environment variable will allow the device manager to show all device drivers installed in the system (both hidden and all that have ever connected to the computer).

2. Call the manager / device manager:
3. Right-click on the My Computer icon, select Properties, and go to the Manage tab.
4. Click on the “Device Manager” button, expand the “View” menu and select the “Show Hidden Devices” command.

5. Start the “sweep” of the system from the “trash”:
5.1 "Disk Devices" section. Every time you plug in a new flash drive, a new driver is installed. Every time you connect the same USB flash drive, but to a different USB port, a new driver is installed. The drivers of all currently disconnected removable media in this section can be safely removed - they will be re-installed when connecting USB flash drives and other USB-drives. Among these hidden and unused drivers will be the driver of "your device" (perhaps "unsuccessful" and not one). It should be called "Your Device" USB Device, but it is not always defined correctly and therefore the name may be different ... Feel free to delete everything that relates to "Your Device" in this section. When you first connect your device, the new driver from the current one will install itself or ask you to install it.

5.2 Section "Other devices" Here you can delete all HID (gray) devices - these are all your unsuccessful attempts to put "something". You definitely do not need them ...

5.3 The section "Volumes of storage devices" Here you can delete the HID (gray) "volumes of storage devices" are the "letters" of your flash drives - they are not needed, because will be assigned again when you connect a flash drive ..

5.4 Section "Universal Serial Bus Controllers USB": Here you can remove all HID (gray) devices: "Your device" Device USB Driver, USB storage device, Unknown device and others.
5.5 Restart the computer.

6. After all these deletions, try reconnecting “your device”. It should show up as a new device and Windows will install drivers for it or you install them yourself (on some devices you need to install drivers without connecting via USB, that is, connect after installing the driver).
6.1 Restart the computer.
Usually this procedure fixes all problems in conflicting drivers of "your device".
