How to enable hidden devices in device manager windows 10!
Viewing Hidden Devices
Device Manager lists the devices that are installed in the computer. By default, certain devices aren't shown in the list.
Other devices on device manager
These hidden devices include:
Devices that have the device node (devnode) status bit DN_NO_SHOW_IN_DM set.
Devices that are part of a device setup class that is marked as a NoDisplayClass (for example, printers and non-PnP drivers)
Devices that were physically removed from the computer but whose registry entries weren't deleted (also known as non-present devices or phantom devices).
Note
Starting with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Plug-and-Play Manager no longer creates device representations for non-PnP (legacy) devices.
Thus there are no such devices to view in the Device Manager.
