I have a microchip device which we interface with Labview 2016 and VISA V16.
I ran the NI VISA and created a driver file (below). apparently I can't attach and inf file.
In Windows 7 it creates the 'NI VISA USB Device' but in Windows 10 it doesn't
Do I need to modify the inf file to get it to work with windows 10?
