I have generatd HID USB driver .inf file by NI-VISA Driver Wizard, but I couldn't intall it successfully because there isn't .PNF file generated in C:\Windows\INF.

My Labview version is 2020 and my system is Win10 64bit.

Could anyone give me some suggestions?

    Most likely is that the driver is not signed. Windows 64-bit requires a signed device driver files. You need to work this out with National Instruments to see if they have a solution.

    You can disable device driver enforcement, but it is not recommended: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-driver-signature-enforcement-windows#:~:text=%20Disable%20Driver%20Signature%20Enforcement%20on%20Windows%2010,first%20option%20will%20disable%20the%20driver...%20More%20
