Hi everyone, i have raspberry pi 3 b+ and ft5406 touch screen. I want to use it. Both of them run on rasbian but they haven't run on Win 10 iot. I have looked release notes for Raspberry pi 3 b+. It says that 'Ft5406 touch screen driver is disabled on RPi3B+.' Only Touch feature doesn't work. Can i install this driver on raspberry pi 3 b+? or Can i run ft4506 touch screen with raspberry pi 3 b+ on win 10 iot?
Thanks.
Regards.

To try to help you focus on the appropriate details of this -
Can i install this driver on raspberry pi 3 b+?
Pedantically, No.
The board itself is passive. For most useful understanding of the word it is not possible to 'install' anything permanently on the hardware. The board must first be running an Operating System - any drivers are applicable to a particular running Operating System.
Since your query appears to relate to the use of the Microsoft Win10IoT operating system you might get more informed comment from a Microsoft support channel.

If you "urgently" need help you might need to be more forth coming.

And to add that an informed reply needs a volunteer helper with the intersection of two skill sets - Win10IoT and ft5406 touch screen.
You might be more successful in attracting the interest of that rare specimen if you put those keywords in the Subject/Topic/Title of the thread.

Official touch screen is on the compatibility list:

Win10iot for the Pi 3B+ is still an 'unsupported technical preview'

Its simply the official 7" touch screen, so I changed the title again.
AFAIK Win10IOT doesn't have a driver for the official touch screen, but I might be wrong.

Why? Apparently you did not check the pages I linked to...
The Pi3B is compatible, it's just the 3B+ that still in the preview phase

No, i have looked (I m new at this project)but it hasn't work, my screen is 800×480 pixels and Link of screen 1280x800 pixels. As you say The Pi3B is compatible, it's just the 3B+ that still in the preview phase

AFAIAA the only difference between a 3B and 3B+ are kernel/firmware, Wireless and Ethernet.
The Official Screen should still work, have you checked it works in Raspbian Stretch ?

Does the display work with Windows 10 IoT?
Is it that you are not getting any display, or that the touch input is non-functional?
