How to Install MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM Drivers For Windows 10

MediaTek USB VCOM Drivers are very important for Android MTK devices as they give support to the installation of firmware, rooting, flashing of files, or performing a complete backup and restore of in MTK phones. Android  devices like MTK 6577 / 6575 , MediaTek MTK6592 / MTK 6753 / 6735M android devices, e.g:- Tecno, Gionee, Infinix, etc., falls into the list. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM Drivers for Windows 10.

We have already treated a tutorial on how to install MediaTek Preloader USB VCOM Driver on Windows vista, windows 7, windows 8, windows 8.1 and for installing on Windows 10 (Technical Preview). See the guide here.

Before flashing your MTK Android device, it is important that you install the right MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM drivers. These drivers will make the connection to your MTK device possible from a Windows 10 on a 32 or 64-bit configuration.

By default, digital driver signature enforcement is enabled, which means you cannot install any driver no matter how many times you try unless it’s digitally signed by Microsoft. But no problems, this is exactly why you are follwing this guide.

The drivers that you will find on this page are unsigned so if you are running Windows 10 64-bit you are required to temporary disable the driver signature verification enforcement in order to be able to install MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM drivers on your Windows 10.

To do that, in the Device Manager window we expand Ports (COM & LPT) section.

The SP Flash Tool will be able to transfer the firmware to your device trough this interfaces. Make sure you connect the device after you press the Download button in SP Flash Tool, as the communication interface will only be alive for 2 seconds if no data is being sent.
