Filter Driver while shutdown

NTFSD

Hi all,
we are developing a file system minifilter driver. we have an issue. while the driver is running and if we shutdown the system while driver is still running, do we need to issue FltUnregisterFilter in the shutdown call back explicitly or the filter manager will take care of that?

AFAIK you do not have to unregister. I know I don’t. Unregistering means “I do
not want to filter anymore”. But if you think about it, you want to filter
'till death! :slight_smile:
