Installing INF/Driver - DPInst through VBScript - Advance Application Packaging

Driver Package Installer (DPInst) version 2.1 is a component of Driver Install Frameworks (DIFx) version 2.1.
DIFx simplifies and customizes the installation of driver packages for devices that have not yet been installed in a computer.
This type of installation is commonly known as a software-first installation.

DPInst searches for INF files for driver packages in the DPInst working directory.
By default, the DPInst working directory is the DPInst root directory, which is the directory that contains the DPInst executable (DPInst.exe).
You can use the /path DPInst command-line switch to specify a custom DPInst working directory.

For each driver package that is installed by DPInst,DPInst adds an entry to Programs and Features in Control Panel.
Users can select this entry within Programs and Features to remove the driver package from their computers.
If a user removes a driver package, the package is removed from the DIFx driver store, the corresponding INF file is removed from the system INF file directory, and all the devices that were previously supported by the package are updated with the next best available driver.

DPInst records high-level messages in the DPInst log file (%SystemRoot%\DPINST.LOG).
The log file is a plain-text file that contains information and error messages and identifies the driver package that was being installed when an error occurred.
