Hello!
I wish to make the HID-device (using example HID-DATA), but I want, that in the Manager of Devices my device was displayed not in Device HID section.
I should alter a file usbconfig.h and write my INF-file?

i guess it will not work correctly. because in inf file there is a part where iti is indicated what king of device is connected. each hid device will be displayed in the same place. only the second part which is depended from the first one can be displayed in another place like mouse or keyboard, etc. sorry maybe i am wrong but from my practice i couldn`t realise this things to be displayed totally in another place. i mean another place from hid section in device manager. for example libusb inf file:
[libusb_class_install_add_reg]
HKR,,,,"LibUSB-Win32 Devices"
HKR,,Icon,,"-20"
here is indicated device icon and device section. device is a usb device but it is shown separately. you can do this for hid if you will find the hid inf document in the c:\windows\inf directory and will do some modifications to it. and will force the device to load the driver from your specific location. Guess i have helped you, Good luck!!!
