    hello Zhitai, 

    I saw it too, however... 

    isn't it for AMD processors ?

    Hello,

    You should launch 

    stlink_winusb_install.bat  file that will determine the .exe to be run.

    Otherwise, the installation of ST-Link Utility will install the driver automatically by the installshield.

    With Regards

    Imen

    Hello !  Try to change the path of installing directory by make a new folder e.g at root directory ->  c:\abc. Put inside the uncompressed driver  and run it again.

    This message is not from bat file.  Is from dpinst_x86.exe.   Try to run  directly with administrator rights the dpinst_amd64.exe

    At least try this.

     Go to Control Panel and open Device Manager.

     Find the stlink device(or the unknown usb device)

    Right click the device and select properties.

    Select Driver tab, then click the Update Driver button.

    Choose Browse my computer for driver software.

    Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer

     Browse for the .inf driver file in your unziped stlink folder. Open and Next.

    The driver must be installed.

    Hi

    I?ve tried to follow all the considerations mentioned and still have the same error on my Windows10

    a) downloaded

    http://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-link009.html

     

    b) unzip and run as with administrator privileges the bat file

    0690X00000604UxQAI.jpg

    c) review Device Manager under unknown usb device and try to upgrade indicating to the .inf folder, it fails with '' Device Description Request Failed''

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for answering

    Thank you all, for sharing the previous posts

    Solved!!

    In my case it was an inference with the Antivirus Software (corporative) and I had to disable it (surprinsingly , not the rest of the guys of my team making the same instalation, behavoural protection? )

    After failed running the .bat file stlink_winusb_install.bat, finally I got it, running directly 'dpinst_amd64'

    Cheers
