I have found a copy of Devcon.exe it seems to work on Windows 7 X 64.
I had hoped to use Devcon to disable and then
immediately reenable the speaker on my headset (a Plantronics CS 50 USB). I need to do this programmatically to avoid the pain derived using the "Sounds" dialog to do the same thing slightly more than twice an hour.
I used the .CMD file "speakers.CMD" which is as follows:
Devcon disable "USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00"
Devcon enable "USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00"
The only problem was that Devcon wanted to wait until there was a system reboot! The exact output of the command was:
===================================================
d:\>speaker
d:\>Devcon disable "USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00"
USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00\6&14AB3D07&0&0000 : Disabled on reboot
The 1 device(s) are ready to be disabled. To disable the devices, restart the
devices or reboot the system .
d:\>Devcon enable "USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00"
USB\VID_047F&PID_0410&MI_00\6&14AB3D07&0&0000 : Enabled
1 device(s) are enabled.
================ the emphasis above is mine ============
This was not at all what I wanted!
Since the above.clearly, did not work; does anyone have an idea how I might accomplish what I so desperately need?
Thanks,
