Basler camera adaptor identified as 'winvideo' instead of 'gentl'

Hi,
I'm working with a setup that includes 2 webcams and 1 Basler camera.
In order to receive data from these devices i'm using 'videinput' from 'Image Acqusition Toolbox'.
At first I installed the 'Support Package for GenIcam Interface' in order to identify the Basler camera.
All worked well and the Basler camera was identified under 'gentl' adaptor as expected.
After that I installed also the 'OS Generic Video Interface' in order to communicate with the webcams also.
Unfortunately, after I did that, ALL 3 cameras (webcams and Basler) were identified under 'winvideo' adaptor and 'gentl' was empty.
Nevertheless, it seems that the Basler under 'winvideo' was connected well.
Although the Basler was connected, this way is making me a hard time, since 'winvideo' has not the same properties I need from 'gentl' to run Basler in the way I want.
If anyone knows how to solve this issue, I will be very gratefull.
Best Regards

Uninstall the OS Generic Video Interface, then you can see the gentl and gige interface. Also all the properties.

I would run imaqtool, then from the Tools pulldown menu select "Register a third party adapter".
