Based off the work of thecubed over in the Nook Color forums, I've created the equivalent ADB Driver installer for the Sony Tablets including the new Xperia Tablet S.
thecubed's original thread for the Nook Color: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910008
The installer is fully automated and negates the need to install the Android SDK or edit any files.
It has been tested under Windows 7 x32 and x64 and should also work for Vista and XP.
========================================
As of 2012 November, Windows 8 requires you to disable driver signing and MANUALLY install the drivers.
Method A:
Open an ADMINISTRATOR Command Prompt:
To disable driver signing, copy/paste the following commands:
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
[RESTART]
(on your desktop you'll see the watermark: "Test mode'" until you re-enable driver signing).
Re-enable driver signing:
bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
[RESTART]
Method B:
From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings,
Click "Change PC Settings".
Click "General".
Scroll down, and click "Restart now" under "Advanced startup".
Click "Troubleshoot".
Click "Advanced Options".
Click "Startup Settings".
Click [Restart].
Choose "Disable driver signature enforcement" (Usually #7)
Install device drivers either through the automated tool or manually.
========================================
(If you're running Windows XP, you may also need to manually install the MTP [media transfer protocol] drivers located here: http://android.mrboot.de/index.php?/archives/6-Sony-Tablet-S-MTP-driver-for-3G-version.html Thanks to cbuckmiller]
It should be quick and painless for 95% of users but if the your tablet still shows up as an unknown device, I've also included step-by-step instructions to manually install the drivers (README.txt).
ADB is also bundled in the ZIP file so you can run "adb devices" as well as any other commands.

Thanks this is probably the most helpful/potentially frustrating step for those wanting to root! I had to work it all out manually last night...
Thanks so much for this!
It really helped me to root, itsaved me alot of time messing around to get ABD to work and your installer worked first time! Top class! Thanks mate.
Nice work m8 and the video was the cherry on top. Could it be any easier?
Keep it up.
You're such a legend. I was having so any problems with ADB, saw your video and its done in minutes

Perfect thank you very much
had a bit of a strugle, but after deleting old drivers reboot and than this script now all is fine, works like a charm thanks
a BIG thank U
Nice work, thanks for all your efforts
Hi, I had to revert back to xp 32bit from w7(dont ask why), problem is Im having problems getting adb sorted. I plug my tablet in and I get a triple ping(!!) instead of the usual 2. Anyways, in device manage it comes up with an explaination mark. Ok i install the automated drivers and xp still does not install them. I make the wizard find the drivers but it reports that drivers not installed.
I feel like a right noob, window 7 was so easy.
H E L P !

Looked at above and it just gives aload of writing.
Confirming this also works for ICS updated devices.
I keep getting "error: device not found" when starting ADB (debugging is enabled). Using Android SDK adb is ok.
Also, why does the .ini have " " instead of normal spaces? I don't know if it causes problems, but I took them out when manually installing. After that, there was only the composite device listed, which I installed.
Hi.
How do I get STP installed with Win XP.
When I go to the STP download here:
http://android.mrboot.de/index.php?/archives/6-Sony-Tablet-S-MTP-driver-for-3G-version.html
I get a load of writing and no file downloaded.
Also, I haven't got a 3G version only wifi.
Cheers.

Hi.

Right I'm going to sack this off because I will end up bricking the devices if I carry on messing about with it.
I've installed the Automated ADB Driver Installer onto my PC. I want to remove the software. How do I go about doing that?
I guess I will just put the S1 into a draw until the official ICS is released.
Thanks.
Hello me again.
I think I know what I did wrong. I'm going to watch a few more videos on how to install adb then I will try it again. I really want ICS badly and I will do what it takes to get it.
Wish me luck.

But when I try to run adb devices it just tells me "List of devices attached" but there is no. A few months ago ADB worked and I was able to do a backup with ADB. USB-Debugging is enabled.

Uninstall the device and check the "Delete existing files/drivers."
Restart, and try the installation again.
If there was an existing ADB driver from another Android device, it may not install correctly since it can't append to the existing Android ADB support INF.

Howdy everyone!
Without further ado, I humbly present my gift to the community (and the #nookcolor irc channel )
This collection of scripts will automagically install:
NookColor USB ADB Drivers
The necessary adb_usb.ini file for adb to recognize the NookColor
A stripped-down copy of the Android SDK, with just the requirements for adb.exe
adb.exe is added to your %PATH% variable.
Tested on Windows 7 32/64, Windows Vista 32, Windows XP SP2/SP3
Now I realize not everyone wants the do-all end-all script, so there's two versions: one that contains the drivers AND a cut down Android SDK, or the version that only installs the ADB driver and the proper adb_usb.ini file.
Instructions for use with combo pack (please read!):
Download the combo pack
With your NookColor unplugged from your PC, run the nookcolor-easyADB.exe file and allow it to extract to c:\
Follow the on-screen instructions and wait until you see "All done!"
Plug in your NookColor, tell Windows not to use Windows Update, and let it search your computer for the proper drivers.
Once the package has finished installing, and the drivers are installed, you can just open a command prompt window and type:
Code:
adb devices
If you see your device's serial number listed, you're good to go!
Instructions for the driver-only pack:
Download the driver-only pack
Extract it somewhere on your PC (may I recommend c:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver ?)
Run install.exe in the extracted folder and follow the onscreen prompts.
For those of you that would like, the source of the driver installer is contained in both downloads as install.au3. Driver installation is accomplished using dpinst.exe from the Windows Driver Development Kit.
Also, to avoid any confusion, I am also known as IOMonster on IRC.
Okay now for the good stuff...
DOWNLOADS:
Combo Pack (all in one!): http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/nookcolor-easyADB.exe
Driver only pack: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/nook-usb-installer.rar
Update: 0.2 version has been released. Should fix CPU architecture errors when installing. I have also changed the download protection on my server, you should be able to use download managers now.. just keep it to a sane number of concurrent downloads by IP.
Troubleshooting:
Make sure you're rooted
Sounds dumb, but trust me, it's happened.
Make sure you haven't used ADBWireless and forgotten to disable it
Guilty here. I spent a good half hour trying to figure out why it didn't work on one of my Nooks until I realized that I had left ADBWireless on.
Check device manager for a "Nook" device, you may just have to do an "update driver" on it
Just like it says, check for any devices labeled "Nook" or "USB Composite Device" with a VID of 2080
Uninstall ALL Nook-related devices in device manager
Check device manager for any USB devices (usually USB Composite Device or USB Mass Storage) with a VID of 2080 and PID of 0002, uninstall 'em and unplug/replug your Nook.
Please note that this is a VERY initial build. It may not work for you under some circumstances, but on the few machines I've tried it on, it seemed to work for me. If you encounter any weird bugs, please let me know- I'd love to know so I can fix it.
(As a side note, I really need to standardize my nomenclature for my driver pack..)
excellent work, thank you
This is awesome! Thanks!
nice job...I had helped test it in the irc channel for ya. I def think this will be great for the community now we just need something to root and and superuser. Anyway good job
First post. Wanted to let you know it worked on my windows7 x64 machine perfectly fine. so much easier than the long way.
I'm using Windows 7 32bit. I unzipped the driver pack, clicked install.exe, then it said something about not having a correct version of windows and to get windows 7 x86 or x64, then a window popped up saying it successfully installed. Assuming that it didn't and using my extreme deduction skills, I opened DPInst.exe and it did it's thing and installed fine. Don't know what happened with install.exe but it works now. Thanks!
Strange... do you remember the exact text of the error?
My install.exe runs DPInst.exe with the /q (quiet) switch, so it shouldn't have even given an error (even if there was a legit error message thrown by DPInst.exe).
Do you think you had install.exe set for compatibility mode? (check the properties for install.exe and possibly DPInst.exe)
Thanks for the feedback! I sure hope this alleviates most of the headaches associated with installing ADB on Windows.
The links are dead, can someone post them somewhere else?
Fault when I install but it installs fine.
It installed fine even though I got this message.
EDIT::::
Ignore me - I missed uninstalling the USB device...
Worked perfectly THANK YOU!

Are you by chance running Windows 7 32-bit?
And as for the links being dead, try disabling your download manager. I see people's download managers trying to do something like 20 concurrent downloads, and my server disallows that.

Hi, I did encounter this similar error as Rylynmila.
BTW, I am running WinXP SP2.
Hm, that's strange.. this worked on my XP SP2 machine, I wonder if it's possible that some machines report the architecture differently..
I'll make a quick script that should let me figure this out easier. It's probably just an error in my script's logic for deciding which version to use.
EDIT: Newly released version has been uploaded. This should fix the CPU architecture problems.
Ah, well, just found the culprit! My AutoIT script checks the architecture of the CPU itself, not the OS you're running.
On the Windows XP machine I tried it on, the CPU itself is only a 32-bit cpu (Athlon XP 3200+), therefore it reported it right.
I should have used @OSArch rather than @CPUArch in AutoIT. Oops.
I'll make an updated version and release it later today.

When the installer came up, did it give you any errors? Check the device manager- you should have an entry for Android Phone -> Android Composite ADB Device.
If you do have that entry, try running
Code:
adb kill-server
then
adb devices
and see what you get.

my wife is using the NC right now, so i'll give that a try when shes done.
i have another question though. i already had adb installed for my phone, now i have it twice. can i combine the two?
If you just want the ADB driver, just download the driver only pack.
If you had adb installed already, this will overwrite it if it's installed to c:\android-sdk-windows.
no luck with easy adb
I have xp and followed the directions given in the first post in this thread for the combo pack. I now have a lot of files in c:\android-sdk-windows\ but when I follow these directions (from Nook Devs) I do not get the proper output...
"Start > Run > cmd > Enter
* cd\
* cd android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
* adb kill-server
* adb devices
If you get output that looks like the following you have succeeded:
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
[YOUR NOOKCOLOR SN] device"
For my output, I get the first three lines but not the
[YOUR NOOKCOLOR SN] device
I looked in Device manager and do not see anything about Android in there. I am obviously an android noob - can anyone help me? Thanks
Can't wait to try this. Thanks!
I consider myself pretty proficient with electronics and computers but I could never get ADB working on my Win7 64 PC no matter which set of instructions I followed. The benefit of this is that I've learned how to use Root Explorer to accomplish a lot of things.
EDIT: This worked perfectly on my PC, although I wasn't prompted to install any drivers. Guessing I had already done so previously trying to get this to work. Thanks much!!
Hi, I am looking for usb driver for viewpad 7 for using adb. Can anybody provide and link or pointers from where can I get the same.
Thanks,
Dang
There's no "real" driver...
Just connect your Viewpad 7 to your PC.
A window pops up where you can select "setup.exe" - select it.
Then a few drivers get installed (perhaps a restart is necessary)
Seems like the Viewpad 7 has a virtual drive which gets mounted when connecting it to a PC - it's shown up as virtual CD-drive for me under Windows XP and Windows 7.
PS: The drivers are also located on the virtual CD-drive in a directory.
Make sure you run the file from the virtual optical drive if you have autorun disabled.

I always open the Sync tool then (do nothing, no sync or so).
That's the only way my Windows 7 PC recognizes the tablet via ADB.
I have been doing that as well, but it's just annoying to have this extra drive that is of no use and just sits there taking up a drive letter.
Stupid question, ive never used adb, but does this mean i dont have to download it because already cames on that virtual drive, and so i only need to install it ?
Now i manage to install the drivers.
I go to the command line in windows and write :
adb usb
adb devices, and get this:
List of devices attached
FM6120420141
Then i do,
adb shell, and nothing happens.
Ive tried several commands and nothing works, what m i doing wrong here ?

Solved driver issue on windows7
Hi,
I was facing issue in connecting viewpad7 to windows7 machine. Even synchronization steps were failing. Manuall attempt to run "adb.exe devices" were unable to detect the device. Here is my steps that I did for rooting the device with SuperOnceClick(SOC)1.7-
1. Initially driver were not detected/installed on windows7. Only CDROM displaying setup was displayed and clicking "Setup.exe" is not installing drivers. Copy the All files on computer and say folder name is "v7Setup".
2. To Install drivers, Connect Tablet/Phone to windows7, select "USB Tethering in tablet" (This is needed to detect devices by Windows7), in windows7:check the "Device Manager", it can show "Others" two devices: HSUSB & RNDIS. Update the driver for both devices from "v7setup/RUT/*" folders.
3. Now start SOC1.7 and select "rageagainstthecage" and click root. It may wait at "Running rageagainstthecage..." message in SOC log window. Then disconnect the Tablet after waiting for 1-2 minute and connect again after beep sound from windows7. Here, again I needed to install the drivers as mentioned in step2. SOC1.7 will proceed and finally in poup message, it will ask to "push su" files. And Done.
Trying to follow lakehousetech's guide Viewpad 7 Backup, Root & Recovery guide, and Super One Click 1.7 basically refuses to work, always hangs on "Waiting on device", using two good known cables and two good known USB ports (front and back).
Found out about the Gingerbreak 1.2 apk, managed to jailbreak and get Super User installed.
So as I move onto the Stock Backup step in the guide, I need to run ADB Shell. So I open up cmd.exe and navigate to the C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools folder and launch "ADB Shell", it starts the server, but ultimately gives me a "Error: device not found".
Are there drivers I need to install?
Do I need this busybox app installed?
Seemed to need them in rooting my HTC Doubleshot (MyTouch4gSlide). What am I doing wrong here?

Ok, i'll copy the ADB.exe file to the H:\ drive on the phone, then use the Windows command line interface to manually navigate to that drive and launch ADB from that folder. Is there anything else I should copy to that folder, other than the image and clockwork file?
There is no virtual CD rom drive letter asigned, just a flash drive letter. Also, what is the setup? There is no setup.exe on the phone drive letter to launch.
PS
Thanks for the advice.

Again, this is not a CD-Rom drive letter, its just some 2.472 gb partition. My Viewpad does not create a CD-Rom drive or image when I connect it to my PC (Windows7 64bit). In device manager, I can clearly see two "VS Viewpad 7e USB Device" listings, but only one of them generates a drive letter. I can see another drive partition in Disk Management, but cannot mount it like I can do other SATA drives.
mine is a auto run setup when i connect the pad also in the drive mine creats there is a adb exe i dont have to copy it dont mount the viewpad for file transfer what youre showing me is the sd card it suppose to show a virtue drive when you plug in the device without mountin it on youre pad
But what kind of do you got the viewpad 7 or viewpad 7e for 7e there is no rom no cwm

So brand new, out of the box, you plug your viewpad into your PC and presto, creates a virtual cd drive and ADB is pre-loaded ready to run shell?
I have the Viewpad 7e, running Android 2.3.1, Kernel version 2.6.35.7-svn ([email protected] #58).
I suppose emailing Viewsonic in regards to getting Google Marketplace installed is pointless, so I might just have to return this product. The fact that I cannot boot into recovery mode tells me this device is defective.

How to install adb windows 8
From what I've read a few members were having troubles installing adb on Windows 8 dev Preview-64bit
I have it installed and running and thought I'd share how I did it.
I take no responsibility if you screw up your phone. "IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS GUIDE IS FOR OR HOW TO USE IT PLEASE DON'T".
Ive linked a zip file containg the adb drivers,the java.exe,the android-sdk and the easytether.exe
I take no credit whatsoever for the htc/android driver I downloaded them from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514942
Thanks to xda member "1wayjonny" please hit the thread up and give thanks to him for all his hard work.
There are alot of other methods to get adb installed on windows8 this is just how I did it.
Laie1472 link
http://db.tt/z5avjkJS
Here we go
Download the zip attatched to the link.
#1-Extract the "laie1472.zip" to your desktop or folder of choice.
#2-Extract the "universal zip" into the same folder.
Now install the jdk-6u22-windows-i586.exe if your running an intel i5 if not then download the correct java version from here-
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
and let it run that's all for the java.
Second extract the android-sdk_r07-windows.zip to your c:\ drive.
Meaning right click on the android sdk and choose extract.
A window will appear. In the address bar of that window is were the files will currently be extracted to. Please delete everything in the address bar except the c:\ Then click "ok" and close the window.
Then go to your start menu and click on it. From there go to computer and click on it. Then you will see an icon that says (c That's your hard drive were you extracted the android sdk. Click/Double click on this icon. From there you should see a folder named Android-sdk something something, Right click on this folder and rename it to "AndroidSDK" without the quotes.
Please rename the folder exactly as I wrote it capitol letters and all.
Next make sure that you have usb debuggin enabled on your phone. If you can't find this, "PLEASE STOP UNTIL YOU DO"
Now run the easytether.exe "free app included in the zip" file and when it opens up it will give you an option of Easy tether core or Android USB drivers. Please choose the Android USB drivers. But "STOP" and click the little arrow next to ANDROID USB DRIVERS. A menu will appear. When it does please choose ENTIRE FEATURE WILL BE INSTALLED ON C:\ DRIVE. Check that option as well. Click install and let it finish.
Now please REBOOT your Laptop/Desktop.
When your pc/laptop is up and running, plug your phone into your pc while powered on and choose "charge Mode only".
Then select the windows key on the keyboard
Then select "control Panel"
Then select "more settings"
Then select "device Manger"
Once your there look for the ""ADB DRIVER" or while in device manger unplug your phone from your pc and then plug it back in and choose "charge only" and watch for the device driver that shows up.
Then "right click" and choose "update driver"
Then select
"browse MY Computer for driver software"
Then select
"let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
Then a window will appear.
Then select
"Next" from the top of the window.
Then select
"Have DISK"
Now when that window opens select "browse"
Then another window will appear.
Now at the top of the window you will see an "address bar" with a "down arrow next to it".
Select the "down arrow" and then a drop down list will appear.
From here browse to your desktop or where ever you extracted the laie1472.zip to and find the universal folder.
Then select the driver
"android_winusb.inf" and select "open".
Another window will appear and then select "OK"
Windows will prompt you to install the driver, also it will warn you that the driver is not signed but press install anyway.
When that is done close out all windows and unplug your phone.
Now restart your laptop/pc. You can do this by holding the window key and press the letter "R"
Now type "cmd" and press enter.
Now a command window will appear, in that window type this or copy and paste it
shutdown /s
Then press enter. Another window will appear saying that windows will shutdown in 60 seconds press ok.
Then type
exit
Then press enter and wait.
When your pc/laptop is back up and running plug your phone into your laptop/pc and choose charge only.
Then hold the window key and press the letter "R"
Now type "cmd" amd press enter.
When that command window appears. Type this command or copy and paste it.
cd\
then hit enter
Now type cd\AndroidSDK\tools\
Then hit enter
Now type
adb devices
You "should" see a bunch of numbers
Those numbers. Represent your phone.
Now type
adb shell
Then hit enter on your keyboard.
You should see the # sign. That means you have adb installed. To test it just type reboot recovery and it should reboot your phone into your current recovery. From there you got it.

If you need help installing adb on windows 7-32,64bit,Vista-32,64bit or Xp-32,64bit see my thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858118
Also the sdk I included is the older version, I haven't tried with the latest one. If you do please post if your successful to benefit the community. Also the path to the tools folder will change with the latest sdk, the command should be
c:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools\
This is not for development only for adb. You have to download the development platforms via adb tools.exe to do development.
Hope this helps.

i got abd installed although easy tether didnt work, you should add to your guide to disable driver signature enforcement then it installs with out issue and without easy tether
Well you never posted what error you received so I'm taking it as user error or its your setup. I've used that easytether exe more than enough times to know it works. I've used it on all of my 64bit os's including Vista, and 7-64bit. Also I've had that exact same exe posted on my other guide for adb on 7 and I've never had anyone post that the drivers wouldn't install. Also I've received numerous of pm's saying thanks for the guide and no one but you have posted that the easytether drivers didn't install. So if you want to figure out why they wouldn't install I'm cool with that pm me or post here but I won't change the guide because imo its one of easiest methods of installing adb and it works if done correctly.

You can install a clean copy of windows in your Yoga Book using the ISO from Microsoft and these drivers.
You will need a USB OTG cable and a USB hub to connect a keyboard, a mouse and a USB drive to your Yoga Book.
You will need three USB drives. One for creating a rcovery drive (16GB), one for windows Installation (8GB), and one to hold the drivers.
- Make a recovery pen drive before you modify anything. This will allow you to restore the device to its factory state, in case you need to return it or are not happy with the results of your modifications:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/instantanswers/3a747883-b706-43a5-a286-9e98f886d490/create-a-recovery-drive
Keep this drive safe and use it if you want to restore your Yoga Book to a Factory state.
- Download a copy of windows and make a USB bootable drive:
https://www.microsoft.com/es-es/software-download/windows10ISO
- Download the drivers and put all the files in a pen Drive. These drivers are from september 2016, posted by UweThelen63 at the Lenovo Forums, looks they deleted the post, here is a copy I made:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxTLcy78OveNUW1KVk9iN3lBS2s/view?usp=sharing
To install windows, put in the USB with the ISO, boot the Yoga with VOLUME UP + POWER button, choose boot manager and select USB UEFI.
Follow the windows 10 installation to the end, you'll get a couple of black screens, just wait. The display will be rotated, use the USB mouse to navigate.
When windows is installed, use the Drivers USB, extract everything and start an Administrator command line ("windows key" + "X", "m"). Go to the folder where you extracted the drivers and run "startmodule" for each driver. Start with the Intel Cherry trail drivers.
I haven't installed the LenovoShutDownHelper yet. I don't know what it does.
You'll have to go into the display settings and rotate it to 270º when the Intel graphics drivers are installed.
For me, everything works except the haptic feedback for the keyboard. If you find ahow to make it work, please, let me know.
I don't know how to install the Dolby programs. Any idea?
thats all great but how do we install it if we have the android version of the yoga book?
Need unlocked bootloader.

We need unlocked bootloader, however, I think its not developed yet.
Anyway,when bootloader unlocked, android users can install windows because of dproldan's contribution!
I'm going mad because of android's humble multitasking interface! I really really hope Nougat releases ASAP!

Sorry. I don't know... I tried to unlock but, at that time, I recognized there is no custom rom or bios and I can't build that. So I gave up to trying...
I believe some hero will lead us...T^T
First, let me thank you for those drivers... I can't believe Lenovo is removing the drivers from their support site and forums. Mind-boggling.

I'd like to know how to install the Dolby programs as well.
That said, to enable the haptic feedback you have to either fix the startmodule.cmd in the immersion vibrator driver folder or manually install it. The .cmd file doesn't set the paths right for the files it needs to copy.
To manually install it:
copy to %windir%\system32 :
Code:
touchsense.dll
touchsensed.exe
(maybe vcruntime140.dll... on my windows 10 it already existed)
then make the folder touchsensed (still in system32, so after it will be %windir%\system32\touchsensed)
copy to this new folder %windir%\system32\touchsensed :
Code:
license.param
tuning.param
then open an admin command prompt and do:
Code:
sc create TSSvc binpath= %windir%\system32\touchsensed.exe start= auto DisplayName= "TouchSense Service"
sc start TSSvc
sc failure TSSvc reset= 0 actions= restart/1000/restart/1000/restart/1000
After that, reboot... and on next boot you should have haptic feedback.
thank you. I reinstalled everything again and did that. Haptic is working now.
Dolby also installed by itself. Probably has something to do with the order of installation. i did the cherry trail drivers first and then the rest, with a few reboots between them.
How did you get the product key or did you have to get a new one?
In my case, Windows activated itself if I connected to WiFi just after the language selection display. I guess the key is stored in the BIOS/UEFI/Mother board.
I don't have a Microsoft account.

I heard win 10's activation is related to M/B.(Maybe from win 8's tablet edition?)

Just loaded a fresh install of Win 10 and it activated on its own. Thanks for the info.
Has anyone got the Automatic System update to work? On Lenovo's website I click 'Start Scan' -> Install the Lenovo Support Bridge -> Then it starts to scan but never gets past 0%
can anyone explain how to install windows 10 on an android version of Yoga book?
who has the ROM of Android version within Google service ? Plz send me one, thank you so much !
hello all...
i have a trouble to clean install my windows yoga book (YB1-91F). Basically i have done all the preparation, driver, windows on usb. Even i make sure i've created bootable usb flashdrive. But everytime i go to boot menu there are no UEFI usb option, there are only greyed boot EFI and boot windows option. i have try to load from advance startup option inside the windows, but in the end it only show "the system doesn't have boot to EFI". so it kind of stuck for me. Even if i choose reset my pc, it always says there are trouble reseting my pc, no change were made.
i want to reset my yoga book, because i've been infected by some malware, and i think my internal storage and windows registry is somewhat junked.
Ups, sorry... i've solved the problem. Eventually I use MBR for the bootable flashdisk where it shoud GPT format... now, i'm clean installing my yoga book. Crossing finger, hope all goin well.

you should start command prompt as an administrator.
- click start
- type cmd
- right click cmd, select run as administrator
- continue to each driver folder
- run startmodule.cmd

you should type command completely with the extension... it's should be "startmodule.cmd" inside each folder of the driver
When I installed Windows 10 again, Windows Update did most of the hard work with installing drivers. So as long as you can get an internet connection by installing the wireless drivers (try using the Device Manager > Search for drivers on this PC) you should be good.
