You are going about it the wrong waySmiley Very Happy

 

The smarter way is to detect the device insertion and use a custom exe to rename the device alias

 

Here is an example of the code to rename the device

Here are the instructions on how to get NI Devmon to find your cool app.

 

It is well worth the effort
