Win 11 Pro 24H2
Arrrgh. I am almost ripping my hair out over this one:

I have a USB JTAG device that interfaces with my Windows 10 PC to program certain development boards at work. On Monday, I was using it just fine all morning, and then I paused for lunch. When I came back I had the delight of watching Windows "reclassify" the device into a pair of serial ports. It did this all on its own and I have no idea why it would just suddenly do this, but now the JTAG device no longer works, and I am unable to put the drivers in for the JTAGger because Windows is telling me the best (and totally incompatible) driver is already loaded for this device.

I can't get rid of the new driver. :(

This is what I have tried:

1. Removed the new driver and tried a re-install of the proper driver ("best driver is already loaded" it says)
2. Edited the registry to take out as many of the new driver entries as I could find.
3. Uninstalled all Windows updates for the last month
4. Moved the new driver out of Windows/System32/drivers, but the PC still finds the wrong driver

This is like a cheesy guy that I cannot get away from. This driver just keeps following me around and it re-installs itself every time I connect the JTAG device to USB. How do I get rid of it and be able to put the right one in? I am puzzled.

And this is not the only computer in the office that this has suddenly happened to. All since Monday/Tuesday.

Help. Please?

I don't think this will help "remove" the borky driver, but if you get it removed, this will stop MS tossing it your way again.

When Windows loads the wrong driver, replacing a good one, I can usually recover by opening Device Manager and telling it to roll back the driver for the device in question.

Unfortunately, I am not given the option to roll back. I don't know why.

Ok. Here are the contents of the file. I have no access to OneDrive or Google Drive. I hope you guys can figure this out. I looked at the list, and the JTAG driver in question is definitely missing.

That DISM command only checks for driver packages stored within the Driver Store. Windows gives each driver package a "ranking score" which it uses to determine the applicability of the driver package for a given device, what has happened is that Windows has found another driver package which it has deemed more suitable than the proper driver package. To effectively prevent this from happening, you will need to modify the associated .inf file for your driver so it has a higher ranking score.

Have a read here: How Windows Ranks Driver Packages - Windows drivers

Windows Update is actually one of the last locations which Windows will check for drivers when intialising a device.

1) When available please post a V2 share link into the newest post.

One drive and google drive each have free cloud space.



2) There may be a "work around" until there is a permanent fix

Well, as it stands, it turned out to be a hardware failure of the JTAG device. Windows still did something weird with it, but it was caused by the device not allowing the JTAG firmware to be reached. Windows was only enumerating the serial port drivers that are used to talk to the device.

I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this thread. I very much appreciate the help.

I guess what happened was when a bus enumeration request was send by the PnP Manager, because the JTAG device had failed, it wasn't getting "detected" as being present on that bus so Windows selected a different driver package. I'm glad you managed to find the issue though, despite it not being the best outcome.
