Windows 10: Driver certification

I have a USB driver that was developed and signed about ten years ago. It consists of an Inf file with its associated Cat file, and a Sys file. Now I need to make an update to the drivers Inf file in order to change some PID values. If I try to change the Inf file, generate a new Cat file and sign that without doing any changes to the Sys file, Windows gives me an error 52 when I try to install the newly certified Inf/Cat file. Will I need to recertify my Sysfile if I want to change the Inf file, or is it possible to just create new Inf and Cat files, certify them and keep the old certifi

No Internet Access. Certificate Error?

Hi Lungi,

Certificate errors occur when there's a problem with a certificate or a web server's use of the certificate. A website's certificate identifies the web server and it enables Internet Explorer to establish a secure connection with the site. Internet Explorer
can help keep your information more secure by warning you about certificate errors.

We would suggest that you follow the steps below and see if it helps:

Step 1:
Perform System File Checker (SFC) scan.



System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

Step 2:
Clean boot.



It will start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and start up programs. It will also eliminate software conflicts that could occur when you install a program, or an update, or when you run a program in Windows.

Step 3: Clear cache and cookies from the Microsoft Edge browser.

• Open Microsoft Edge, click on More Action at the right top corner.
• Click on Settings, click on Choose what to clear under
  Clear browsing data.
• Select the Browsing history, caches and cookies and hit
  Clear.
• Close the browser and try to open it again.
