You need to install a user mode drive to leverage already existing kernel code with your device.

I assume this is what ADB does, using the Microsoft provided WinUSB kernel mode driver and associating it with your mobile phone USB vendor and product ID. There's not a single line of code in such a driver, just some INF descriptors.

There might also be different forms of user mode driver, not sure how they work.
