So several of the drivers in this package are not needed on Windows 10. Some of the \"Learn\" tutorials mention this, some don't.\r\n\r\nThere were several recent support issues around the UF2 bootloader that seemed related to the drivers being installed on Windows 10. Somewhat mysteriously (to me), uninstalling the drivers made the problem go away.\r\n\r\nExamples: https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues/123 (EDIT: different problem)\r\nhttps://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=116801\r\n\r\n\r\nThe PJRC CDC driver installer [notices](https://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=80341#p407086) if it is being run on Windows 10 and does not actually install anything.\r\n\r\nSo perhaps the installer should check the Windows version and remove or gray-out the checkboxes for the unneeded drivers? Some explanatory text could be added."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/adafruit/Adafruit_Windows_Drivers/issues/comments/307998332","html_url":"https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Windows_Drivers/issues/1#issuecomment-307998332","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/adafruit/Adafruit_Windows_Drivers/issues/1","id":307998332,"user":{"login":"dhalbert","id":2847802,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/2847802?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert","html_url":"https://github.com/dhalbert","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dhalbert/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2017-06-13T03:44:11Z","updated_at":"2017-06-13T03:44:11Z","body":"Saw another case of a user whose M0 Express was not seen properly on Windows 7 until the older usbser drivers were removed: https://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=118739.
