Eliyas, thank you for your very clear answer. Glad to know I can use WinUSB on Win7 for my new USB 3.0 project.

1) There is no Microsoft provided drivers for USB 3.0 on Windows 7.

2) There are third party USB 3.0 drivers are available on Windows 7.

3) OEM systems that are sold today with USB 3.0 come with third party drivers preinstalled.

4) Since there is no change required in WinUSB to support USB 3.0, WinUSB should work with third party USB core stack on Windows 7.

Is support for WinUSB using USB 3.0 going to be available in Windows 7?
