The sc command will help you: sc stop <имя_драйвера>
The name of the required driver, in turn, can be obtained with the command: sc queryex type= driver
Or find the driver branch in the registry and look at the name there:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services

Therefore, try to find the service corresponding to the driver and stop it.

More details in the studio.

if you need to do it programmatically, there is setupapi.h in DDK
