I need to completely get rid of associate Apple iTunes software and Apple Mobile Device USB driver and I want Windows OS to properly detect the iOS device as if it sees the iOS device for the first time.
Mtp usb driver failed to install install#
I concluded that one needs to install the iTunes software first before attaching the iOS device for the iOS device to be detected properly and if the generic USB aka MTP USB device got installed first by Windows, it can quickly become messy to a point of no return and I surely have no plans to re-install the OS. I am not aware of any 3rd party tools that allow tracing the windows driver installation and detection, and failure to install the correct driver is the source of this current problem. However, under the Portable Devices, the MTP USB Driver shows a persistent yellow warning about driver install failure instead of Apple iPhone on my other Windows 7 desktop. I checked to device manager and confirmed that the Apple Mobile Device USB driver did installed successfully under Universal Serial Bus controller and also verify Apple Mobile Device service is running. The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation. I have tried many things with no success, including using a different usb port(s), uninstalling/reinstalling (repair as well as clean install) latest version of Apple iTunes software and even try force install from the inf file directly from the following driver install patch C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers which conveniently pop up a install error dialog: You may receive an error message when you try to install a device driver on a computer that is running an 圆4-based version of Windows
When forced the Apple mobile device driver install, I run into the following error: Multiple attempt to install the device driver failed saying I already have he current driver. Getting iOS devices to sync on iTunes is easy, but somehow one of my PC no longer allow me to access my iphone internal storage through Windows Explorer running Windows 7 圆4 OS.
