WDK 10: Driver for Server 2012 - 64

NTDEV
1

Hello,

I downloaded WDK 10 and opened a project with V.S 2015 Express.

In Properties –> Driver Settings –> General –> Target OS Version I can select: Windows 10 or higher, or earlier versions.

What option should I select for a device driver for Server 2012 ?

In order to compile for 64bit OS, should I select: Platform: x64 ?

It seems the WDK 10 installation does not contain help like the one I had in WDK 7.1.
Am I right ?

Thank you,
Z.V

The WDK no longer includes the sample drivers. They are now available
as a separate download.

Hi Peter,

“Help” means WDK documentation that was installed with WDK 7.1

Thank you,

Starting with the win8 wdk we no longer shipped a CHM file. Everything is online on MSDN. The CHM file is out of date the moment it ships.
