I have a problem and I haven't been able to get a good answer for this. I want to install drivers on many computers at the same time remotely. The command works but it fails du to timeout.

When I do the command on the computer directly, there is a popup that said if I want to add the driver owners (in this case google) to the trusted publisher. This is what's causing the timeout. I wanted to try to get rid of it but it seems impossible. I had the idea to self-sign the driver certificate but it seems to be impossible for the x64 version of Windows but allowed in 32 bits for some reason.

Anyone have an idea how to proceed? I only want to install that damn drivers remotely and silently.

    Regardless of self-signed or by google you will need to install the certificate as it's used to validate the signature. The certmgr utility can be used to install a certificate. See:deploymentresearch.com/Research/tabid/62/EntryId/63/… for an overview.

    Too vague for a "real answer," but you should be able to extract the Google cert, add it to the trusted publisher via a script, and then install your software. This might point you in the right direction. community.spiceworks.com/how_to/… Feb 5, 2015 at 4:40
