Hello !

we have a driver for an usb item we would like to include in our installer package, and currently we just have it in a subdirectory of the install. But is it posible to place it in the windows drivercache, so that it will be found automaticly when the item is plugged in, or at least so the user wont have to browse to the location of the files upon installment of the usb device ?

Thanks, and have a nice day.

Hi Simon,

You could try copying the file manually into the Windows Search Path - that should do the trick, or checkout the DIFx command.
