Remove Non-present Devices using DevCon ======================================= removedevices.js is a script to automatically remove all non-present (i.e. disconnected) devices from a Windows computer system. This can often be useful to prevent misbehaving and/or unnecessary drivers from being loaded. WARNING ------- This script will remove/uninstall devices from your computer system. Although several important types of devices have been excluded from the default removal process, the possibility of removing devices critical to the operation of your computer system still exists. PLEASE double-check the list of devices which will be removed before pressing "Y" and PLEASE create a system backup if you are remotely concerned about making your system unbootable. Examples -------- - To remove all non-present devices (except legacy and software devices) either double-click the script or invoke it from the command prompt without options. - To delete devices without confirmation, run removedevices.js /noconfirm - To see the output of DevCon as the script executes, run removedevices.js /verbose - To create a list of devices which would be removed, run removedevices.js /outfile:devicelist.txt - To delete all devices (device IDs) listed in a file, run removedevices.js /infile:devicelist.txt More Information ---------------- Installation instructions are available in INSTALL.txt. Major changes are listed in ChangeLog.txt. Complete license text is available in COPYING.txt. The latest version of this software and the bug tracking system are available on GitHub <https://github.com/kevinoid/remove-nonpresent-devices>.
