Win USB Addon or the USB Remote

Zeoch and Tschutscha, have you solved the problem with intsllation of Auvisio Driver?

I have both packages installed. Unfortunately, there is no auvisio driver here.

I want to verify that you have driver signing disabled. this post tells you how to do it without putting windows into a test mode.

I am going to put together a driver package specifically for this remote and see if you can install it manually through device manager.
Give me a few I am going to hammer it out right now.

I believe I found part of the problem.

If you go to C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost you will see a folder in there called drivers.

I want you to copy that folder.

Then in the address bar type in %programdata%\EventGhost and press enter.
Then paste the folder there.

Then install the plugin and it should be able to locate the files now and build the inf file properly. If it still does not work let me know I have already manually built the inf file and I will upload it if needed.

you can also try this as well.

with a decent text editor like sublime text or notepad++ DO NOT USE Notepad WordPad included with Windows
open the file C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost\eg\Classes\WinUsb.py

on line 88 you will see change it to
that should also fix the issue as well.

SOLVED!!!
Thank you so much!

This solution also worked for me.

Thanks for your support.

sorry it took me a while to track down the issue. I am glad to have solved it for you. I will be making a code change to the core of EG to fix this issue.

@kgschlosser: Can you confirm this 'fix' should already be in the most recent build?
I recently created another PC to use as a HTPC accompanied by a VRC-1100 remote.
I tried all plugins (MCE Remote, MCE Remote Win7, Generic HID plugin) and none of them seem to capture my VRC-1100 input anymore!
- Yes, i have Driver signature enforcement disabled
- I ran EG in Administrator mode when adding the MCE Remote plugin and restarted the PC twice, as suggested.
Would the above solution fix my issue as well?

yes the above fix will solve your problem.
This issue has not been addressed as of yet. the "fix" i posted is more of a workaround for the time being until I get the time to correct the underlying problem. and that is going to be corrected when the plugin repository I have been working on comes online in the no so distant future.

I just came across this thread and hope I can get some help.
Been running EventGhost on WIN 7 without any problem.
Recently I've upgraded to WIN 10.
Whenever I try to download the plugin I get an error:

Exception in thread Thread-5:Traceback (most recent call last):

I believe I have the driver sig thing turned off.
How would I know for sure?

I looked at the "winusb.py" and it was already changed to ".Net".
Also, for what it's worth, I don't have a "drivers" folder in any directory.

Please help.

Today I downloaded the latest version (for WIN 10) of EventGhost, disabled the signature checking, and was able to download the driver.
Thanx!

UPDATE! UPDATE!

I don't know how I ever got it to work that one time, but I've tried numerous times since then, with different PCs and I can't get it installed.
I'm back to the original problem that I posted.
This really stinks; I have wasted so much time on this one problem.
I wish someone could help.
