This version has been mentioned as containing the corrected USB networking driver:

When the Kindle is working properly, you don't have to diddle drivers in Windows.
But I do not know of a Windows version that handles vendor:device == 1949 EAD (which is a hexadecimal number).
There are a number of places you can look that information up, such as:
http://www.the-sz.com/products/usbid...1949&p=DEAD&n=
Where you can see what device that device code refers to.

I'm sorry I didn't realize that it was a rhetorical question. I thought you wanted to know what the device ID was before it all went south. 😅
The DEAD code doesn't belong to anything, as expected. However, the ID 0004 belongs to "Amazon Kindle 3/4/Paperwhite".

Thank you for your input!

See post above yours and the post above that, where the O.P. identifies which version s/he is making driver changes in.
Translation:
With unexpected response by v-1709 to a Kindle does not indicate a Win10 driver problem, it indicates a Kindle problem.
Screwing with the drivers probably only complicated the matter.

I realize, in hindsight, that it was irresponsible of me to diddle the drivers without taking a backup of it first.
Actually, I was following this
post, hoping to get fastboot running so that I can try factory resetting my device.
Any tips as to what I should do now?
