The solution here is to write a simple driver installer.
1) Microchip provides a driver installer example for the
CDC-ACM driver package in the Microchip Application Library,
using DIFx API.

Tool/Example CDC Installer

2) You can also use libwdi's wdi-simple example, using
either Inno Setup or NSIS.
