Do you know if installing this will rebuild the entire USBStor
service in the registry? That's what needs to happen to fix this,
since I deleted with the SC command at the command line using this
exact command: "SC DELETE USBSTOR"

Hoping to re-create the service, but I don't have all the necessary
details for the command line (after trying it once, it failed to
work).

This is the command line I tried: "SC CREATE USBSTOR binPath=
"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DEVICES\USBSTOR.SYS -k runservice" DisplayName=
"USB Mass Storage"

I found a command line for creating a different service at this
page: https://www.herongyang.com/Windows
/Service-Create-Delete-Services-with-sc-exe.html

...and it was the only thing I could find that I could try to adapt
to my situation. Since it didn't work, I simply did what I did the
first time and deleted the USBStor service I tried to create.

Being there was so much guessing involved, I don't know what the
original command line would have been to create the USBStor service
and I think there are probably some other switches that go along with
the command line to create it properly...plus I'm not sure about the
display name (what it should appear as in SERVICES.MSC)
