Perhaps use a less dead base project?

It seems this project might be "more alive" than the current base project you're saying is Step 1 in the installation process:
https://github.com/1Revenger1/mac-precision-touchpad

Can you let us know one way or another if we can utilize this new option?

hi, my project is already based on the 1Revenger1 version, as explained in the main README. When you follow my project's installation process, you are installing my driver, which is based on 1Revenger1's, which in turn is based on imbushuo's. Please tell me if I understood your question :-) Thanks, Vito

Hmm, interesting. In your readme / instructions you show this:

Note how the link therein is:

https://github.com/imbushuo/mac-precision-touchpad/releases/download/2105-3979/Drivers-amd64-ReleaseMSSigned.zip

Which links to that other project I initially noted.

Shouldn't your setup simply obviate / eliminate that other step and utilize your own link and build entirely? Or is this initial download from them necessary?

Getting a driver signed by Microsoft costs money, typically around 500/600 USD per year. Imbushuo has incurred this cost to sign the drivers that can be downloaded at the link you indicated. I could go through this expense myself, but it would only make sense if I had thousands of users using my version of the driver. So, long story short, I studied this workaround, where you install the imbushuo driver using his signed drivers and then replace his driver with mine directly in the Windows Driver Store (using the "Install Driver" button in my Control Panel). My driver is self-signed (i.e. I don't pay anything to create it). Vito
