Feature Request: Remove ghost devices button #345

Description

@Chaython

Windows kept reinstalling drivers for devices I didn't have anymore such as RTX3080 display driver, logitech mouse array....
This was because the devices were marked as disconnected but still necessary in device manage.
This script removed all ghost devices and fixed the issue.
#List all hidden devices
$unknown_devs = Get-PnpDevice | Where-Object{$_.Status -eq 'Unknown'}

#loop through all hidden devices to remove them using pnputil
 ForEach($dev in $unknown_devs){
 pnputil /remove-device $dev.InstanceId
 }

Would be nice if this powershell script had a button somewhere within this app
