Windows 10: Unable to update driver for RNDIS device in Win 10

Hi,


I have USB RNDIS device. When plugged it in Win 7, It appears under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers". But after "update driver" with my ".inf" file, it starts working under "Network Adapters".

But

When plugged same USB RNDIS device in Win 10, It appears under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" as "USB Composite Device". But when try to "update driver" with my ".inf", it gives a message "The best drivers for your device are already installed". I need to have it under "Network Adapters" for smooth working.


Can someone guide?
