Windows Setup
To setup the WICED Feather on Windows, the following steps are necessary:
Install Adafruit Windows Drivers
If you are using a Windows based system, you will need to install a set of drivers for the USB DFU, USB CDC and other
USB interfaces used by the WICED Feather to perform fimware updates and communicate with the device.
Adafruit provides a convenient Adafruit Windows Drivers (https://adafru.it/mb8) installer that takes care of the details
for you. Simply download and install the package below:

Once the installation process is complete, you should be able to plug your WICED Feather into your system and it will
be recognized thanks to the signed drivers you just installed.
Install libusb 0.1 Runtime
To use libusb (which is required to communicate with the WICED Feather), you will first need to install a pre-compiled
libusb runtime.
You can install this by downloading and running libusb-win32 driver (https://adafru.it/mb9), taking care to select the file
named libusb-win32-devel-filter-1.2.6.0.exe.

Make sure to DISABLE the 'Launch filter installer wizard' option at the end of the installation process!
This page assumes you have already installed the WICED Feather BSP, as detailed earlier in this guide.
