Vendor Name not showing in Device Manager

[krixx]

Hi, I can see my controllers clearly by name in VKB Device Config

And in Devices and Printers

USBLogView shows no Vendor Name when plugging them in or out

And in Device Manager all I see is a bunch of HID devices

How do I get the correct Vendor Name and type in my device manager list?
Thanks!

The names that show up in the device manager are from the inf file that was used to install the drivers for that device.

Since VKB controllers just use the generic windows controller drivers they are named as such.

It may be possible to create a dummy inf file that will give it it's proper name in the device manager but I believe that would also require creating digital signature cat file so window will trust the driver install. So a lot of work just to have the name in the device manager.

Or maybe adding the name in the registry if you could find the right key to edit.
