Was anyone able to get Kinnect v2 to work on Windows 7

Today, I had to use Kinnect v2

I use OpenFrameworks to develop simulation and I know it supports Kinnect throught its ofxKinect, OpenFrameworks (at least the version that I use: of_v0.11.2_vs2017 that I am familiar with) works fine on my windows 7, I don't need much from Kinnect to do, just to provide depth data so I can capture 3-D shape with it (cloud of 3-D points)

So I decided to try to get Kinnect to work

I first installed Kinnect SDK 2 and runtime like this

1. Extraxt KinectSDK-v2.0_1409-Setup (I used UniExtraxt: https://github.com/Bioruebe/UniExtract2  for this)
1. in Folder setupFiles u have msi setup files
2. Install KinectDrivers-v2.0_1409-x64.WHQL.msi
3. Install KinectSDK-v2.0_1409-x64.msi
4. Install KinectRuntime-x64.msi
KinectRuntime-x64.msi will complain it cannot start KinectMonitorService

Thats because u are missing a dll
so get a 64bit dll here: https://github.com/nalexandru/api-ms-win-core-path-HACK
and put it inside C:\Windows\System32\Kinect

Press retry in setup and now the KinnectMonitorService will start secsesfully

Kinnect v2 configuration verifier appears to work:

but when I plug kinnect in it keeps connecting and disconnecting, like it would be faulty (windows also says: USB Device not recognized, I know my USB ports are fine since no other device does this

The same kinnect also works fine on another windows 11 computer so I am not sure whats going on

I tried uninstalling all the drivers and trickery I did restarted my pc and the result is the same, like the device would detect my windows 7 internaly and refuse to work or someting

This is the intermediate device I connect kinnect to:

So yea, maybe its just that the hardware I am trying to use the kinnect with is not compatible and windows 7 has nothing to do with it, idk

Thanks for Anwsering and Best Regards
