Windows 10 - Cannot install vJoy v2.1.8.39 - Update irFFB to support vJoy v2.1.9.1

I cannot install vJoy v2.1.8.39, on Windows 10*. I get this error:

I believe I traced it to a certificate that was never signed with a CA Root Authority.

These certificate details were taken from:

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\hidkmdf.sys ... when v2.1.9.1 was installed
C:\Users{UserName}\AppData\Local\Temp{DriverTempFolder}\ ... while at a prompt to trust the driver ... during installation of v2.1.8.39, where clicking Install to trust the driver still did not work.

This link may be relevant, because I'm also tracking a separate issue where VirtualBox Test Builds stopped working, due to a change in Microsoft's certificate acceptance. See here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/deprecation-of-software-publisher-certificates-and-commercial-release-certificates

I am able to install vJoy v2.1.9.1 without any problem.

Could you please consider updating irFFB to support vJoy v2.1.9.1?

Thanks, Jacob

Note: I am using Windows 10 Insider Dev Channel Builds (21337 at time of this bug), if that makes any difference, but I don't think it should.

Hoping you can support the newer v2.1.9.1 vJoy!

Here are the installer log files. They don't give much hint as to what happened, but I still suspect the older certificate being invalid, was the culprit.

This can be easily changed in the code and you can compile it by yourself. If you don't want to do changes yourself then check this fork as it already has that implemented and in addition it has more cars with the "understeer" effect: https://github.com/Fuzzwah/irFFB
