Anyone has a practical solution to this problem?

Is there any updated driver fully compatible with Win10 x64?, I have already disabled the "Enforce use of signed drivers" and after clicking on install it displays "The driver could not be installed"
what a ass I wasn't connecting the damn board, anyways for those struggling with Win 10, before installing the driver check this link to enable the use of unsigned drivers: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/disabling-driver-signature-on-windows-8/disabling-signed-driver-enforcement-on-windows-8

Hi, I've got the same problem on windows 10, I disabled the driver signature verification and I still get an error when trying to install the mbed Windows serial port driver: "The driver could not be installed. No mbed Microcontrollers were found." I also tried to install the driver with compatibility mode, still got the same error message. Any ideas ?
Here is a potential solution / temporary work around. The issue is that the USB Serial solution is based on fixed Vendor & Device IDs that are required to be married to a signed INF driver package. If the signed drivers are found then the hardware will install on 64 bit operating systems. Respectively, if the driver is not signed, the hardware will fail to install.
Work around is to alter the Vendor & Device IDs and pair with a driver package that is signed.
The default MBED IDs are detailed here: https://developer.mbed.org/users/mbed_official/code/USBDevice/file/0e6b3f44926e/USBSerial/USBSerial.h
vendor_id = 0x1f00 product_id = 0x2012
change them to:
vendor_id = 0x04D8 product_id = 0x000A
and apply this driver package during the installation: http://www.microchip.com/forums/download.axd?file=0;796940
Can confirm that this solution works for another target micro for some lab tests conducted last year. Should be also fine for this exercise as the serial port is an industry standard CDC model.
Moving forward, for production, you are required to use unique registered IDs. In the meantime, share the love and support the respective silicon vendor with future purchases :)
Hoping that MBED will support the same driver package with signed drivers (with MBED IDs) in the near future.
