    Yes, I know but without .cat signature file I can't install this driver because system show information that this driver is not signed.
    Does Windows 10 store .cat signature files from built in system drivers somewhere ? I search and I can't find it.

    What about turning off signed driver enforcement?

    Click the Start menu and select Settings.
    Click Update and Security.
    Click on Recovery.
    Click Restart now under Advanced Startup.
    Click Troubleshoot.
    Click Advanced options.
    Click Startup Settings.
    Click on Restart.
    On the Startup Settings screen press 7 or F7 to disable driver signature enforcement.

    C:\Windows\system32\CatRoot

    You can find the .cat with sigcheck. For me they are here - you may have a different version.

    Code:
    C:\Users\Hali\OneDrive\Programs\SysinternalsSuite>sigcheck -i C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\xinputhid.inf_amd64_db028d70bdb5db0d

    Thank you lx07, I checked .cat location and it's same as your in CatRoot

    I copied from Anniversary update xinputhid.sys, xinputhid.inf, and certificates from this CatRoot move everything to Creators Update system, put this .cat certificates to CatRoot.

    Then I check by this Sigcheck xinputhid.inf

    It's signed.

    But still I can't install it, driver no signed

    Edit: I installed it with no singed driver warning and it's work :) but what is total weird please see below screenshot (in Polish "Nie podpisane cyfrowo") mean not Signed.
    So in one window display not signed in other window show signed by Microsoft :)

    Try, then ask a question.

    Make a directory, put the inf, sys and cat in the same place and try.

    I can't add any more as apart from that, I don't know.

    That is how you install though.

    .sys, .inf and (perhaps) .cat.

    Not complicated.

    Mark this thread closed if you at content.
