Author Topic: Need help uninstalling a driver. (Read 16313 times)

DustinHerron · « **on:** February 20, 2009, 05:37:04 PM »

This started trying to install the driver that allows me to use my PS3 controller on my computer., I tried it on a program that worked fine on my last computer. After a lot of frustration and failure, I decided to try to reinstall the driver which is libusb-win32.

When I went to programs to uninstall it, it said there was a problem and it removed it from the installed programs list in control panels. When I tried to run the installer again it said an old version was installed and I have to uninstall it first. I cannot figure out how. I even opened up search and deleted a few files that seemed to be associated with it, but it still tells me the same thing.

I found a post another forum that recommended to track it down in services and stop it there and delete the files. I cannot do this since there it was already stopped, and the files they say to delete do not exist. Any help would be appreciated.

Try Driver Sweeper: http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/

I don't see how this helps me remove a driver. Even if it was updated I still have to reinstall, since deleting files related to it probably nerfed it anyways. To reinstall I need to remove it. And it would cost me $30.

Broni · « **Reply #3 on:** February 20, 2009, 08:22:32 PM »

What exactly will cost you $30?

DustinHerron · « **Reply #4 on:** February 20, 2009, 09:27:17 PM »

From what I understood that software you linked me to.

Broni · « **Reply #5 on:** February 20, 2009, 09:40:13 PM »

It's free.

Removing the Device Driver
The device driver can not be removed from the system. Windows doesn't offer any option to do this

DustinHerron · « **Reply #7 on:** February 21, 2009, 11:39:26 AM »

So nothing can be done?

kpac · « **Reply #8 on:** February 21, 2009, 11:42:15 AM »

Did you check Device Manager?

patio · « **Reply #9 on:** February 21, 2009, 11:51:55 AM »

And or remove/uninstall it in safe mode.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #10 on:** February 21, 2009, 12:24:07 PM »

I cannot remove it because I cannot find it.

patio · « **Reply #11 on:** February 21, 2009, 12:45:00 PM »

Start/Search libusb-win32 and hit Enter...
Again do this in safemode.

Broni · « **Reply #12 on:** February 21, 2009, 05:29:36 PM »

Have you even tried Driver Sweeper?

DustinHerron · « **Reply #13 on:** February 21, 2009, 10:17:34 PM »

Nothing comes up on search safe mode or not, and all driver sweeper does is tell me it cannot create a file because access is denied. If the driver cannot be removed, it would help to know what files i need to have to where it is supposed to work again so I could dodge the installer, because it just tells me the same thing no matter what I do.

Broni · « **Reply #14 on:** February 21, 2009, 10:31:26 PM »

Run the program as Administrator.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #15 on:** February 21, 2009, 10:35:09 PM »

Same result.

No libusb in device manager.

Broni · « **Reply #20 on:** February 22, 2009, 01:15:41 PM »

OK, couple of things.
I wasn't aware, you're running 64-bit version of Vista.
HJT is not very useful here, since it's not fully compatible with 64-bit system.
Secondly, judging from the driver name: libusb-win32, it's 32-bit driver, so it doesn't even make sense to reinstall it.
You must be looking for 64-bit driver (if it exist).

No libusb in device manager.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #22 on:** February 22, 2009, 03:13:42 PM »

I found a forum that tells me how to get libusb to work on 64 bit vista, but again it involves using the installer which is still impossible. You would think there would be a way to chase down the remnants of the original installation and delete them or at some way to purge it or at least find out where they are.

The device manager turned up a lot of things when I showed hidden items. But not a one of them had anything to do with libusb.

Close all windows then double click on AVZ.exe
Click File > Custom scripts
Running script window will open
Copy & paste the contents of the following codebox in the Running script window

Code: [Select]

begin
SetAVZGuardStatus(True);
SearchRootkit(true, true);
 DeleteService('libusb0');
 DeleteService('libusbd');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\libusbd-nt.exe');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\drivers\libusb0.sys');
BC_ImportDeletedList;

BC_Activate;
RebootWindows(true);
end.

Note: When you run the script, your PC will be restarted
Click Run
Restart your PC if it doesn't do it automatically, and post back with a new HijackThis log.

After restart, the driver, and all its services should be gone.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #26 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:01:09 PM »

My problems seem to never end.

After I click run after pasting into the box I get what looks like some cyrillic letters and a message telling me the program has stopped working.

This started trying to install the driver that allows me to use my PS3 controller on my computer.

You can buy usb game controllers at your local department store. Some look exactly like playstation controllers. I got one at Walmart for fifteen bucks.

Have you tried doing a system restore to before you installed the driver?

Broni · « **Reply #28 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:13:24 PM »

Run it one more time.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #29 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:15:13 PM »

I tried it 9 times.

Broni · « **Reply #30 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:28:43 PM »

Change the script to:

Code: [Select]

begin
 StopService('libusb0');
 DeleteService('libusb0');
 StopService('libusbd');
 DeleteService('libusbd');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\libusbd-nt.exe');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\drivers\libusb0.sys');
end.

If it won't work, we'll go for manual removal.

I also got some error message about access denied in repairing something in hijack this. I tried the installer after using avz, (which told me it worked time as far as I can tell) but got that same uninstall old version first message.

I think I should also state I appreciate the responses and attempts to help my problem.

Now, wait a second.
Don't do two things at the same time, because you're gonna mess something up.

I didn't ask for HJT log.
All, I asked was to re-run AVZ with new code:

Close all windows then double click on AVZ.exe
Click File > Custom scripts
Running script window will open
Copy & paste the contents of the following codebox in the Running script window

Code: [Select]

begin
 StopService('libusb0');
 DeleteService('libusb0');
 StopService('libusbd');
 DeleteService('libusbd');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\libusbd-nt.exe');
 BC_DeleteFile('C:\Windows\system32\drivers\libusb0.sys');
end.

Note: When you run the script, your PC will be restarted
Click Run
Restart your PC if it doesn't do it automatically, and post back with a new HijackThis log.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #34 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:46:05 PM »

I did that first (avz) and did not run Hijack until after restart, which I had to do manually. So I would not think it would make any difference as I changed nothing in regard to hijack.

Broni · « **Reply #35 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:46:59 PM »

If the above doesn't work, right click on AVZ.exe, and click "Run as Administrator".

DustinHerron · « **Reply #36 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:54:20 PM »

Ran it as administrator. Nothing changes.

Broni · « **Reply #37 on:** February 22, 2009, 10:55:58 PM »

AVZ stops working, or what? Any error message?

DustinHerron · « **Reply #38 on:** February 22, 2009, 11:07:56 PM »

AVZ worked with the second codebox. It said it worked anyway. After restarting, the installer still tells me the same message that an old version must be uninstalled first when i try to use it. I reran avz as an administrator, and it succeeded again. I restarted and tried running the installer as an administrator again, but got the same message.

Edit-By installer I mean the libusb installer.

Broni · « **Reply #39 on:** February 22, 2009, 11:13:20 PM »

Give me fresh AVZ log (reply #23).

P. S. I'm close to going to bed, but I'll be around tomorrow.

Here you go.

Nothing was removed, so....

Go Start, in "Start search", type in:
cmd
Hold CTRL+SHIFT, and hit Enter

At command prompt, type in:
sc stop libusbd
Hit Enter.
Wait for the service to be stopped.

Type in:
sc delete libusbd
Hit Enter.

Restart computer in Safe Mode (keep tapping F8 key, when your computer starts, until menu appears)

Open Windows Explorer. Go Tools>Folder Options>View tab, put a checkmark next to Show hidden files, and folders.

Navigate to C:\Windows\system32, and delete libusbd-nt.exe file.
Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\drivers, and delete libusb0.sys file.

Restart in Normal Mode.

DustinHerron · « **Reply #42 on:** February 23, 2009, 01:20:03 AM »

I type in what you say at the command prompt and it says access is denied.

Broni · « **Reply #43 on:** February 23, 2009, 09:39:16 AM »

Did you:
Hold CTRL+SHIFT, and hit Enter
It's important. This way you run cmd as administrator.
