In order to use libusb-1.0, you have to use WinUSB driver. So you have
an issue now since the HID backend has been removed due to the
vehement objection from the current maintainer.

So you have to switch from the HID driver to WinUSB in order to use
libusb-1.0 under Windows and I do not think this is a good idea.

Probably you need to look at HIDAPI and write a Python wrapper for it.

You can however use libusb-win32 filter on the HID device and use
the libusb-0.1 backend of pyusb. That is not an optimal solution
but it can be done.

To use the filter, install libusb-win32 and run the Filter Wizard
GUI program.
