Driver installation prompt

When installing a driver, Windows is prompting the user to hit Install on the window - see the attached screen shot. For an attended install, this may be okey, but for a silent install it is blocking the installation since no window can be shown.

Looking at http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/winlogo/drvsign/best_practices.mspx, it looks like solution is to add the certificate to the Trusted Publishers but it didnt seem to help.

Any ideas how to by pass this window?

Thanks in advance!

To be honest, I am not sure about the internals of the driver installation. The driver comes with a merge module and there is a Custom Action called InstallDriver. At the point where this CA is executed, following window is displayed.

Thanks for the reply and looking forward to more 🙂
