Sorry but we do not.

By integrating libusb-win32 device driver into your driver installer,
you should not be
required to change your driver installer license to be GPL, as long as
you do not
change the driver source code. You can just mention that your device
driver is using
libusb-win32 device driver and provide the web link to libusb-win32 github.

Reference: similar question.

BTW, I am not suggesting you use libwdi though as it is licensed
under LGPL. Rather you can use other installers like Inno Setup.
