Found this video - using the built in Drivers tab - so I create a simple MSI - add nothing to it - as all I want the MSI to do is install a new pack of drivers.

I go to the drivers tab, select New Driver, select the inf file and it brings it into the system. I then select the tick boxes I want for the driver and build my MSI.

When I run the MSI I get an error - Your Application ended prematurely because of an error - Yet I follow this video to which you say it should work - can you advise where your video goes wrong so I can deploy my drivers.

Frustrating when we spend so much on an app - follow a video which the devs release and it doesn't work.

Thank you
