Why can't I install .inf file generated by NI-VISA Driver Wizard?

[rolfk]

Why so stingy and just showing a little icon? How do you know this is the device tree entry for your device? Under which device category does it show in the device tree? What is the VID and PID for it?

And last but not least are you prepared to implement the HID protocol on top of VISA? Not that it is super complicated (at least if you know about low level raw USB communication). But it's not gonna be easy either and there aren't many examples out there how such needs to be done. And once you have the HID protocol working, do you know the actual HID format that your data from the device is in?

I certainly know it's the device by comparing the status of plug in and unplug the USB device. 

I just want to know why the INF file created by NI-VISE driver wizard cannot be installed successfully.

My OS is win10 x64, this option cannot be selected, but it's selectable in win7 x64.

Account Elevation? Did you start the wizard as Administrator (even if you run in an Administrator account that is still required for elevation of the current process to be at a level that allows installing drivers).

[wolf007]

Yes, already in Administrator, but it doesn't work.

It's obviously something with your computer. I offered pretty much all I can think of, maybe you need to talk with your IT departement. Something in the settings of your computer doesn't want to let you install drivers apparently. Nothing we could help you with.

To clarify, rolfk wasn't asking if your account had admin privileges, he was asking if you selected "Run as... administrator".  Or Run with elevated privileges" or something like that.

I have tried "Run as... administrator", it didn't work either.
