Using a Microsoft Kinect on a PC as a Webcam; Is \Stream.sys for Kinect Available?

Microsoft has drivers to let the Kinect do this in a different update channel. Here's how to get those drivers from Windows Update.

Opt-in to receive test distribution drivers

1. Open the Windows Registry Editor (regedit.exe).
   
2. Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\
   
3. Create subkeys \DriverFlighting\Partner\
   
4. Under \Partner subkey, create a string named “TargetRing” and key-in “Drivers” as the value.
   

Get the drivers from Device Manager or Windows Update

From Device Manager:

1. Open Device Manager (Windows key + x, then m).
   
2. Expand “Kinect sensor devices”.
   
3. Right-click on "WDF KinectSensor Interface 0".
   
4. Click "Update Driver Software..."
   
5. Click “Search automatically for updated driver software”.
   
6. Allow it to download and install the new driver.
   
7. Reboot.
   

You can now use the Kinect for Xbox One as a webcam and for Windows Hello.

I am in need of your help getting a Microsoft Kinect (Xbox One model, which I don't even this is worth mentioning as I have had the conversion kit from the Microsoft Store working like a charm.to function as a webcam on Windows 10≥.586.164

I know a Microsoft Kinect is many things in a slick package with two units being *a color webcam on a microphone array**.

The USB 3 bandwidth is there, but I can only ever get my Kinect to function as a webcam when I sign in using the fantastic Windows Hello (I hate passwords).

Example webcam failure: My dog doesn't seem to grow change in appearance, so let's go with something new, like old mug.

It tries to be helpful by instructing the use to make sure their audio or video device as listed inDevice Manager has got a someone on that like named Stream.sys.

I must be missing it, don't know which version I'd need, an don't trust bein about to locate it from a safe place (one that signs it with Microsoft Corporation). Maybe I should try copying KinectSensor.sys to System. but I'm guessing there are quite a few sensors handled by driver.
