I just checked if my PC is using a Samsung OEM ADB driver, or WinUSB,
(where I ran this while scrcpy was mirroring my Android on the PC monitor).

 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers | findstr /i winusb
     (reported nothing)

 C:\> pnputil /enum-devices /connected | findstr /i adb
      Instance ID:  USB\VID_04E8&PID_6860&ADB\6&421596b&8&0003
      Device Description: SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface

Apparently:
 a. VID_04E8 = Samsung
 b. Device Description = Samsung

Apparently If it were WinUSB, it would say something like:
 a. Android ADB Interface or 
 b. WinUSB Device
 c. and the driver provider would be Microsoft.

 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers | findstr /i samsung
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
      Class Name:         SAMSUNG Android Phone
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
      Class Name:         SAMSUNG Android Phone
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
      Class Name:         SAMSUNG Android Phone
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
      Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.

 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers /drivers | findstr /i oem
        pnputil /add-driver c:\oem\*.inf
        /delete-driver <oem#.inf> [/uninstall] [/force] [/reboot]
        pnputil /delete-driver oem0.inf
        pnputil /delete-driver oem1.inf /force
        /export-driver <oem#.inf | *> <target directory>
        pnputil /export-driver oem6.inf .
        Enumerate all OEM driver packages:

 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers | findstr /i ssud
        Original Name:      ssudbus.inf
        Original Name:      ssudadb.inf
        Original Name:      ssudadb.inf
        Original Name:      ssudadb.inf
        Original Name:      ssudmdm.inf
        Original Name:      ssudrnds.inf

 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers | findstr /i winusb
       (reports nothing so WinUSB isn't being used)
 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers | findstr /i android_winusb
       (reports nothing so Google USB isn't being used)

 C:\> wmic path Win32_PnPSignedDriver where "DeviceName like '%ADB%'" get DeviceName,DriverProviderName,DriverVersion,InfName
       DeviceName DriverProviderName DriverVersion InfName
       SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd. 2.19.1.0 oem56.inf

This confirms Lawrence is likely correct, as is Paul, that I prolly' 
installed a Samsung OEM adb driver at some point in the life of this PC
although it's just as likely that Windows update installed it perhaps.

To see who installed the driver, I ran this command.
 C:\> pnputil /enum-drivers
        ... stuff ... 
       Published Name:     oem56.inf
       Original Name:      ssudadb.inf
       Provider Name:      SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.
       Driver Version:     09/26/2022 2.19.1.0
       Signer Name:        Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher
        ... stuff ... 

This proves the driver came from Microsoft's driver catalog, so
it's most likely Windows installed it automatically the first time
I had plugged the phone into the PC USB port (as far as I can tell).
