Installation of driver under non-admin user - may switch to different location when accounts have different path #45

Scenario: Windows with a non-admin user tries to install a driver. The user is prompted to elevate privileges, which leads to switching to a different account. The path to the driver is then taken from the admin account instead of the user's one. The installation fails if the version is not the same because the .inf file is stored in the .espressif directory under non-admin users.
