Since June 2017, the driver is automatically installed from "Windows Update".

also if i try to install manually, the message say that driver was detected but an error occurred during installation
the software has been subjected to the Windows logo program testing on a different version of windows and may not be compatible with this version of windows

Our drivers have effectively been made with the most recent code signing (SHA-2) which is mandatory by the most recent version of Windows10.
After some Google research, it looks sometimes you have to manually install some Windows files by your self. Please read this for more informations: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/lib ... ty/3033929 .
But so far, we also read that there is no problem with Windows8.1. We read that it has no problem to read Windows10 code signing (when it is of course 100% up to date).

Could you please double-check with a Windows10 computer ?

They also talk a bit of Windows8.1, but the additional file to manually install seem to be only for Windows 7, which is apparently not auto installed by "Microsoft Update". And Microsoft says there is no problem for an up to date Windows8.1 to read the Windows10 Digital Signature !!!

It looks there is some Microsoft internal problems with Digital Signature, between different versions of Windows.
We are sorry but we are presently not able to fix this Windows problem.

Only Micro$oft can decide if this will be easy or not, to make the old OS reading the Windows 10 digital signature.
But is seems they have more interest to force people to go for their lastest OS.
