Hello,
In Windows 7, i can view the used USB storage history in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USBSTOR", but it's impossibe to delete the registry sub key, so i think if can uninstall the USB driver by the used USB storage HarewareID or SN, do not know how to uninstall the USB driver by command line or other ways, thank you.
Because i want to protect my privacy, thank you.
What exactly do you think is stored in there that you need to delete? And whats the point, as soon as you connect that device again the key will just be re-created?
Gents- I think he wants to uninstall the driver for the usb device, which would be of interest just for geeky curiosity.
He may be thinking that if he deletes the registry keys he can remove the drivers (NO).
Say someone is visiting and wants to show you some pics on her camera. She hooks it up to your PC, it loads drivers for her camera. You look at the pics - you laugh - you cry, then she goes back to France for a swimsuit photo shoot. So now you got this driver for a camera on your computer that you will never use again. Can you remove it? How?
This might be what the OP is looking for. Start and type in device, go to device manager, Human Interface, right click on your desired driver for the camera and select remove driver.
Close Layback,
Device Manager : Hidden Devices
Should find it/them under either Disk Drives or Portable Devices.
That and all that is there is what kind of device was connected, nothing about what was on the device.

How to it uninstall the usb driver to delete the used USB history?
The Nirsoft program shows all instances of USB usage on the system, including phones, Webcams, cameras, mouse etc. Double clicking on the .exe will open up a window showing you all the devices ever used. From there, you can locate the device, right-click on it and select "Open in reg-edit". From there you can see where the information is stored.
You can choose to delete the particular registry entry you wish. Just be careful which entries you delete as certain bits of required hardware will need to retain the registry values and may stop working if removed. Make a backup of any key you plan to delete before doing this, and create a restore point first.
Though, all this seems a pretty fruitless exercise.
