Removing the Plug and Play Driver

Removing the Plug and Play Driver

Installing a Brooktrout device using the Plug and Play Manager

(Found New Hardware Wizard) creates some backup files and registry entries. The Windows® Plug and Play Manager uses this information to automatically install the device on rebooting.

To completely remove the Plug and Play driver from the system, you must perform a complete cleanup after you remove the device from the Device Manager.

Make sure you stop all your applications and the Boston Host Service before uninstalling the device driver.
