How can we add HID entry under device manager..
Posted by SG on April 17th, 2008


One of the anti virus software is removing HID from device manager. How can
we add it back to device manager ?
Thanks,
SG

what do you mean remove? HID devices are present and connected but not
shown?

Doron,
Thank you for your response.
1- In the registry HID is missing under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum entry.

I do not see
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\H ID

2- In the device manager HID is there with yellow bang.

Thank you,
Sudha

Doron,
It is working that way. But how can we do this programmatically ?
Thank you,
Sudha

you cannot do this programmtically. the enum tree is private to the pnp
subsystem.
