registry and property pages for WDF driver

NTDEV
1

Hi,
When a user changes few parameters in the property pages, it is being changed in the registry and the driver re-loads with the new configuration.
1.Is that the way it works?
Can I read the registry from the driver Entry?
Can I change only the parameters listed under Device Install Hardware section of the INF?

It depends on how the prop pages handles the apply/ok button. If it sets the prop changed attribute via setupdi, yes, reload is expected. If the values are stored in the devnode, you can start reading them in AddDevice, not DriverEntry.

Who is providing the UI implementation? Your code or windows?
