AkVCamManager Remove-Devices Issue #65

OS: Windows 11 Professional
AkVCam version: 9.1.0

I used the 64 bit version of AkVCamManager/Assistant.

I had created some test devices and then removed them and removed the service.

AkVCamManager remove-devices
AkVCamManager hack set-service-down

After issuing remove-devices I ran
AkVCamManager devices
And AkVCamManager returned empty, so I then removed the service and rebooted.

However, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox still see the test devices. While AkVCamManager and Windows settings continue to report there are no devices. If I plug in real webcam Chrome, Edge, and Firefox will detect it and list it, but it will be removed from the list as soon as I unplug it as I would expect.

Below are some screenshots just to visually confirm what I wrote.

P.S. If anyone knows how I can remove these erroneous devices manually, please let me know.

I figured out how to manually remove them, there were some garbage entries left in the registry that were not removed upon camera deletion. They were stored under the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID{860BB310-5D01-11d0-BD3B-00A0C911CE86}

{860BB310-5D01-11d0-BD3B-00A0C911CE86} has a descriptor 'VFW Capture Class Manager' so that makes sense.
