How to assign file extension and custom icon to executable?

Hi bslimanea,

Let me make sure I completely understand what you are asking.

You want to run the DriverWizardInstallInf64.exe from the command window?

And you want to automatically install the driver and change the registry like the wizard does?

Hello bslimanea,

I just wanted to let you know that I am still looking into your question.  It may take a few more days since this is a little more unusual application.

Thanks for the patience.

Hi bslimanea,

I have a couple more questions if you don't mind.

Why do you need to make this automatic?  Do you have to do this each time your device is connected to the computer?  If you follow the procedure in the link below, the device should remain associated with the new driver and you should not have to repeat this process each time.

Hello,

I have to do that one time. I've create my own software and I want it to install the driver automatecly (like when you install a printer, you have not to install driver manually, the installer do that automateclly)

And i dont want the client (one who will buy my software) to use the driver wizard because he dont know how to use it. and i I want that my software whose easy to install and use

So please if i know the syntaxe of the DriverWizardInstallInf64.exe, i can do that

Thanks for your help

The USB product's firmware will determine what driver will install when you plug in the device. (USB Firmware).

This link talks about why you have to install NI-VISA because it does not automatically get installed.

This link is some more information from Microsoft on how it chooses which driver to install. This explains how Windows chooses the driver and within her might shed more light as how to implement Windows not to install that driver but the NI-VISA driver.

Maybe this is not helpful, but have you tried to start the program from a command line console either with empty paramaters or one of /h, -h, --help?

Most command line tools do have a usage text put out on stdout when they encounter either invalid or missing parameters or one of the above switches.
