Beginner driver development, a few months up finally realized the function of want, based on WDK8.1 Update + facilities model is developed in Visual Studio 2013 kernel mode control device driver, also is not depends on the hardware equipment, has been under test mode of computer development and testing, now want to use a formal,

The question is:

Found after turn off the computer test mode, drive can be installed, but the load error and corresponding digital signature confirmation is not installed driving certificate, issued the certificates on the site look, found a certificate will be several thousand dollars a year, so I'm just curious, wondering, disappointed ~ ~ ~

Hard to develop a driver, and then found that no formal use, I just want to ask experienced elder people what to do, how to continue to go on? Normal use of a driver must apply for certification to obtain a digital signature?

The development of the wince do you do? This is a Linux plate you send the wrong place

CodePudding user response:

As follows:
Windows XP, Win7_X86 operating system, drivers don't need a digital signature can normal installation;
Win7_x64 Win8_x86, Win8_x64, Win8.1 _x86, Win8.1 _x64, Win10_x86, Win10_x64, operating system, drivers must have a digital signature can be installed,

The new operating system, improved the security features; Digital signature is in order to improve the security features of program and prepare,

CodePudding user response:

The new operating system, improved the security features; Win10 driver signature need to EV code signing certificate

CodePudding user response:

Win10 closes the signature then install, it is ok to install complete restart, just installed Windows 7

CodePudding user response:

Win7x64 need signatureWin10x64 need cross signature
I remember watching a great god released an expiration of driving snow, can have some fun
