I'm wondering if anyone might know a solution to this.

I bought a USB microscope from eBay that wasn't supposed to work with Windows 10 but it did. It's supposed to be for XP, Vista and 7 (32bit and 64bit). It's a generic Chinese plug and play device that isn't supposed to require a driver to work. It comes with a driver CD in case it didn't work automatically.

It worked fine until Windows 10 force updated. Now when I plug it in, the LED lights come on the microscope but amcap states 'no video capture device was found'.

Device Manager can see USB2.0 PC Camera in Image Devices with a yellow exclamation mark. Properties/ General states, Manufacturer: AVEO

'This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)
Driver is not intended for this platform. To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.'

I've tried Update Driver Software / Search Automatically, but I get 'Driver not intended for this platform'. Then it comes up in Device Manager in Other Devices as Unknown Device.

I've tried Uninstall and then Scan for Hardware Changes. It just pops back to Image Devices as USB2.0 PC Camera with the yellow exclamation mark.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver on the CD. I right clicked the driver and chose Compatibility Mode Windows 7. I tried Compatibility Mode XP (Service pack 3) and the driver installed for 15 minutes (instead of a few minutes) and asked me to reboot as usual but that didn't work either. Instead Device Manager is showing '(Code 18) reinstall driver'. The driver is an InstallScript Setup Launcher so it can't be found.

Device Manager / Properties/ Events keeps showing,

I've tried every USB port.

I think I've successfully selected 'Disable driver signature enforcement'.

I've tried it on a Windows XP PC and it worked fine.

As it worked on Windows 10 before, I'm wondering if there is something I could try to get it working again. I know nothing about drivers and would like some advice please.

It's this exact model and packaging. It states on the front USB 2.0 & 1.1 and there's a Java icon. There's no model number.
