Create driver .inf files for devcon installation

[sjkorvin]

Hello. I am currently on Windows 10 20H2. @Wohlstand I have communicated with you on VOGONS and as you are aware, the drivers do not survive a reboot on Windows 10 2004 and after. Would it be possible for .inf files to be included with the drivers so that they can be installed using devcon from the Windows Driver Kit? I have understood that installing the drivers with devcon would self-sign them and allow them to survive reboots. If you are researching a better solution that does not require self-signing, then I understand if you would not consider my request. Thank you very much.

Looks like an interesting thing, however, can you give some manual links on how to compose these INF files?

Below is a link from Microsoft Docs titled "Creating an INF File for a File System Driver":

Below is a link detailing devcon options. Please note that the version of devcon.exe detailed in this link is from the Windows Driver Kit 7.1.0 for Windows 7. I do not know if options have changed since this release of the Windows Driver Kit:

Thank you very much for considering my request.
