What determines what the windows device
manager displays for a CDC virtual serial port?
String descriptor on device?
inf on host?
Something else?

To be clear, I'm not asking about the COM number.
The rest of it.

From experimentation,
the DESCRIPTION string in the inf file is what shows up in the device manager.
I learned this when I finally got Windows 10 to use the .inf file I'd
thought it was.
