USB2DBG driver installation failure issue

If you want to hook up two Windows PCs with USB 2 debug dongle for kernel debugging but it keeps failing to install the driver(even though you already checked the correct bitness and others), then you might need to edit the usb2dbg.inf.

First you need to check a setupapi.dev.log.

ndv: {Update Driver Software Wizard for USB\VID_0525&PID_127A\AJAYS001}
dvi:      Set selected driver complete.
dvi:      {DIF_SELECTDEVICE} 16:53:27.799
dvi:           No class installer for ‘Ajays USB 2.0 Debug Cable’
dvi:           No CoInstallers found
dvi:      {DIF_SELECTDEVICE – exit(0xe000020e)} 16:53:27.815
ui :      Prompting user for disk…
ui :      DPROMPT result = 0
dvi:      {DIF_SELECTDEVICE} 16:53:34.783
dvi:           No class installer for ‘Ajays USB 2.0 Debug Cable’

In case you found such error messages, try adding the ‘ClassGuid’ for USB class line into version section like,

[Version]
…
ClassGuid = {36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000}  <– add this line
