Visual Studio Version 16 VisualStudioVersion = 16.0.33328.57

Windows Driver Kit - Windows 10.0.19041.685 Windows SDK - 10.0.19041.685

I am able to build the XPSDrvSmpl for x64 but I am unable to install the driver. These are the steps that I take to install the driver:

  • I build the driver for x64 and it creates a package folder and package.cer
  • I install the package.cer certificate file
  • I got Device Manager -> Print queues
  • Select Action -> Add Legacy Hardware
  • Hit Next in the Wizard and select Install the hardware that I manually select from list (Advanced
  • Select Printers from Common hardware types
  • For Use an existing port choose FILE (Print to file)
  • Choose Have Disk... and select the INF file for Copy manufacturers files from
  • Select OK

I get the following error: image

Does anyone how to get around this or the correct steps for deploying and testing a driver on your local machine. Any help is appreciated - thanks!

Research-Richtung
Investigate the exact error message from the attached screenshot to determine if it's a signing or INF parsing issue. Review the XPSDrvSmpl sample's INF file and documentation for correct installation steps. Check if the certificate installation requires admin privileges or if the driver needs to be test signed. Look at comments for any troubleshooting steps provided by other users.
