Windows – Roll Back Driver

email me

Using devcon.exe, you can roll back a driver…or install a new driver.

On an 8470 laptop, I was able to successfully roll back a cam driver under Windows 10 using the following:

devcon.exe update C:\Windows\INF\usbvideo.inf “USB\VID_0461&PID_4DFE&REV_2010&MI_00”

 

On an 8470 laptop, rolling back 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller driver:

devcon update C:\windows\inf\1394.inf “PCI\VEN_197B&DEV_2380&SUBSYS_179B103C&REV_30”

 

Notes

The process is

devcon update PathToNewInf.inf “OldHardwareIDHere”

 

devcon.exe source file (for W10)
