How to Change USB Device Descriptor in Device Manager for STM32 USB CDC FS

[dplogiic]

Hi Team,

I'm using STM32 USB CDC FS on my custom board. In the Windows Device Manager, it shows as "STMicroelectronics Virtual COM Port (COM6)." I want to change it to display a custom name for my board. Here are my questions:

1. How can I change the device descriptor to show a custom name in the Device Manager?
2. Are there any licensing requirements for using a different Vendor ID (VID)?
3. I tried changing the #define USBD_VID 1155 to a different value, but it then shows as "USB Serial Device (COM6)". Is there a specific VID I should use, or a proper way to register a custom VID?
4. Is it possible to change name? and How

Please see this thread, which also refers to a previous one, which explaines the procedure.

Hope that helps?
