Hi,
I just tried to load my filter driver (PnP driver seats over volsnap driver)
at runtime using osrloader (just experimenting). It worked fine (load part)
on win2k8 and win2k3. On Win2k, driver unloads immediately after load. Any
reason why this happens and how to prevent driver from unloading on win2k.
Thanks,
Sunil
Does W2K require some add up to support VSS?

Even if you will load the binary, you will not be able to properly attach it to the devnode stack.
The only solution is to restart the devnode. And yes, for a boot disk, this requires a reboot.

Hi Maxim,
With this kind of run-time loading I am able to filter newly created volumes
which is fine for me. Though this works on win2k3, I want to do similar
thing on win2k and I am stuck at this issue where driver unloads immediately
after load. Anyway to get around this?
Am I missing something here.
Thanks,
Sunil

No need to load the driver - this will be done automatically.
Just register it in Upper/LowerFilters.

Our requirement is “load the driver at run-time and filter only newly
created volumes”.

Such a requirement is not supported by Windows.
