Installing a legacy driver from the admin command prompt?


regsvr32 C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_umpass.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_3e36a1bb590690c5\umpass.inf

regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\umpass.inf_amd64_neutral_e3be362bfab667d2\umpass.inf

Didn't seem to work. Says it is not compatible (I am using a 64bit system). I am trying to install a legacy driver (device manager) system - microsoft - ecpnode. Is this the wrong command I am using or the wrong syntax? Thank you kindly.


Solution

  • copy devcon64.exe c:\windows\system32

    devcon64.exe install eaphost.inf eh\0

    There is a 64bit devcon64 and a 32 bit devcon. The eaphost.inf was the file's base driver and then looking up the hardware id in the device manager I found the eh\0
