Windows 10: What are GSPY Devices?

So I conduct research using microcontrollers and the software I use cannot communicate with my microcontrollers after my system power cycles. On first install I can communicate with the controllers just fine but not so after my system power cycles. In Device Manager my microcontroller programming board shows up as a Virtual HID Minidriver Collection under the GSPY Devices category. Where does this driver come from, since this is what seems to be causing me issues? This does not show up on other computers I have tried.

GSPY Device - What is it?

Hi Andrew

A GSPY Device is generally a smart watch with GPS or GPS enabled mobile phone, have you connected either to your PC?

What is the Make and exact Model No. of your PC - that will be printed on a sticker on the bottom casing . . .

 

GSPY Device - What is it?

I recently noticed in my device manager a device installed called GSPY Device. Besides the fact, that this is very suspect name to give a device or virtual device, I can't seem to find any information about it.

Can anyone provide clarity to what it is?

Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

Method 1:
I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
2. Select or click Ease of Access.
3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
5. Check if issue is resolved.

Method 2:
I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
