Disabling a system device automatically

[probedrone 0]

I have a device installed on the system that sometimes crash when running certain programs, I need to make a autoit script that can disable and enable that device whenever i want. The thing is that I dont want to use mouseclicks (unreliable) since I might use this program on different computers, so does anyone know a way to access device manager and working with it without mouseclicks? Or even better, is there some value I can change in the registry that will do the same thing?

ProcessClose() and Run()?

ProcessClose() and Run()?

Can you go into more detail on how that works? I think it will close/run a program, not disable a device...

What is the device?

The DevCon utility is a command-line utility that acts as an alternative to Device Manager.

Using DevCon, you can enable, disable, restart, update, remove, and query individual

devices or groups of devices. DevCon also provides information that is relevant to the

driver developer and is not available in Device Manager.
