minifilter inf

Hi all,

I’ve developed a minifilter which is started with SERVICE_AUTO_START . I want to copy the driver from specific path to %SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers every time the OS starts before the driver is started.

Is possible specify this kind of action in inf file ?

Thx

I guess you could specify this in INF File,
Also, you need to place your driver at %SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers only
once, then it stays there unless uninstalled!!!

So why do you need to place it there before each system start?

To do it via INF File
add this if not already there

[DestinationDirs]
DefaultDestDir = 12
Minifilter.DriverFiles = 12 ;12 is meant for
system32/drivers

I guess you also need StartType = 0 ; 0 means SERVICE_BOOT_START

Thanks for your reply Shamoel,

I want to copy the driver every time the system starts as a quick solution to update the driver without stopping it and take advantage of the reboot.

I have read about the installation options using inf file and I have not seen how to do it…
