I have a need to manually remove a network driver.
The specific steps are as follows:
Right-click on My Network Places and click Properties.
Right-click on the network adapter and click Properties.
If the “Teefer2 Driver” is listed under “This connection uses the following items:”, then select the “Teefer2 Driver” and click the Uninstall button to remove the driver.
Click Close to close dialog box.
Right-click on the adapter Connection and select Repair. (Only available on Windows XP and 2003)
Repeat this process for each affected network adapter.
I can run the relevance to determine if the “teefer2” adapter exists, for instance:
descriptions of adapters of network
I cannot seem to find a command line process for removing a specific driver - does anyone have any guidelines or recommendations?
and then use devcon to remove to delete the device.
test and make sure your current driver inf and pnf have been removed. you can look in the reg for the infpath for that device and then delete the oemx.inf that is for you hardware. If you dont do this, your hardware may try to use your old device drivers.
Great! Thank you for the tip. While it didn’t help me remove the actual driver, I used it to disable the driver prior to removing the required entries in the registry.
