Cannot remove Viscosity Tap driver from Windows 10
Posted: Thu Jun 20, 2019 8:57 pm
Hi,
maybe in the past i used Viscosity to test functionality, i do not remember.
Now if i install OpenVpn ... viscosity tap adapter appear in the network connections for a moment...
Drivers detail:
Published Name: oem20.inf
Original Name: visctap0901.inf
Provider Name: SparkLabs VPN
Class Name: Network Adapters
Class GUID: {4d36e972-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
Driver Version: 05/09/2016 9.0.0.21
Signer Name: SparkLabs Pty Ltd
I did: pnputil -f -d oem20.inf, oem20.inf was deleted, visctap0901.inf* was deleted from DriverPackages..., i deleted visctap0901.sys from window/system32/drivers folder manualy also...
Rebooted... driver is installed again
In the windows registry i found that value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\DRIVERS\DriverDatabase\DriverPackages\visctap0901.inf_amd64_30d1404d9c811413
OemPath => c:\windows\temp .... ???? Driver is installing from temp directory on reboot ? Which process copied vistacp0901.inf to temp and from which location ??
How to remove this driver forever from my PC ?
Installing and uninstalling Viscosity not helps... (installation creates new driver)...
Sorry for my bad english
