If you test drivers on Windows 11, and use Windows Driver Verifier, you need to know that Driver Verifier on Windows 11 is effectively useless for diagnosing most errors.
Important Update: It seems the behavior we seen in Driver Verifier is a bug and applies only to when/if Verifier is enabled via the GUI. If you use the command line to configure/enable Verifier, everything works as it should.
Thank you @Peter_Viscarola_OSR for this. I will check out the OSR Developers Blog to get more details on the issue.
Do you have any suggestions or tips for alternative tools or methods for driver verification and debugging on Windows 11?
@Robin77 -- After re-considering... I'm deleting your post as inflammatory nonsense, which is not substantiated by our experience here at OSR.
If you have confirming evidence for your (now deleted) claim, please get in touch with me directly (email/message here) or post a topic to me in the Announcements & Admin section.
Microsoft has issued a fix (KB5040442 ) for this problem. In Windows Update the update is identified as “2024-07 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2”.
Driver Verifier GUI, verifiergui.exe, is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Windows. You can use the Verifier Command Line (verifier.exe) instead of the Driver Verifier GUI.
