Hi,

-I have developed one Keyboard HID filter driver for my custom keyboard, when i attach my keyboard and try to install using Device manager->Keyboard->HID_KEYBOARD_DEVICE->Update_driver->Browse_from_my_PC->LET_ME_PICK_FROM_MY_PC->Have-Disc.... It get successfully install and works properly, but only on that port only, when i try to plug it out and plug it on another port my filter driver do not get detected. I know I have installed filter driver on specific Port instance, so it is not getting detected on another port.

  • But what should i do that i install the filter driver once and i get detected on all ports. I have tried different ways but don't know how to install my filter driver without connecting my keyboard to my PC, i have also tried pnputil and devcon, my driver gets install also, but not get detected when i connect it to any port and if i install it when my device is connected to any port filter driver gets install on that port instance specifically.
    -Can Someone help me solve this, that would be very helpful.
