  WLK 1.6 active errata extended into 2015

  We have updated all active errata filters for the  Windows Logo Kit (WLK) 1.6 test kit. All errata that were fixed in the kit were expired. All active errata that weren't fixed have been extended until December 1, 2015. (This extension date shouldn't be considered an indication of the kit's retirement date.)

  You can  check the status of all errata on the  Hardware Dashboard. To narrow down the list, use the filters to view only active, expired, or expiring within 30 days. You can also search by ID and title.

  Thanks, Steve

  The Windows Certification Program ensures that every certified product has

  the submission fee. Effective with the release of Windows 8.1 Preview, the fee
  for every new submission for Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 logos will

  time. We'll announce the end date for the offer when Windows 8.1 Preview is
  released. Stay tuned!

  [How-to] Merge .hckx package
  Steve Leo MVP 2012年6月18日 上午 06:32

  Merge .hckx packages

  HCK Studio supports merging packages into one new package. This
  feature gives you the flexibility to distribute your tests across different
  projects, machine pools, and/or other HCK environments. Once each package is
  successfully created, you can merge them using the Merge Package option.

  1. From HCK Studio, click Connect.
  2. Select Package option, and then click Browse and open the one
     of the existing .hckx package you want to merge.

     Note
     You must open an existing .hckx package to enable this scenario. The original .hckx package will not get modified.

  3. Select Package tab, click Merge Package.
  4. From the Open dialog, select an .hckx package you want to
     merge.

     Note
     If you accidentally selected the wrong package, exit the project and start over. You cannot cancel a merged file.

  5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each additional package you want to
     merge.
  6. Click Create Package.

  [News] Windows Hardware Certification requirements for Windows 8.1 are now available
  Steve Leo MVP 2013年6月18日 下午 11:21

  Windows Hardware Certification requirements for Windows 8.1 are now available

  New Hardware Certification requirements for systems, servers,
  devices, and filter drivers are now available for the coming Windows 8.1 and
  Windows Server 2012 R2 update.

  The preview of the Windows Hardware Certification Kit (HCK) will be made
  available on June 26, concurrent with the release of the public preview for
  Windows 8.1 (code-named "Windows Blue") and Windows Server 2012 R2. You will be
  able to begin certifying your systems, servers, and devices at that time.

  To make your review of the new document easier, notice the table of key
  changes. As with the Windows 8 requirements, the new document is organized by
  feature so that the related requirements that define the features are found
  together. You'll find a Product Type to Requirements to Test
  mapping matrix to help you determine which requirements and tests define
  certification for a given product type.

  The new requirements for the Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 update
  are now available here.

  [Errata] Errata expiration guidelines
  Steve Leo MVP 2013年6月4日 下午 11:09

  Errata expiration guidelines

  We've updated all active errata filters for the Hardware Certification Kit (HCK) 2.0. All active errata that
  weren't fixed in the test kit are now extended until 9/30/2013. We'll reevaluate
  all active errata again about 3 months before the new expiration dates. We'll
  either retire errata or extend the expiration date again, depending on whether
  fixes are in place for the test issues. A few errata are set to expire between
  now and 9/30 by design for delayed enforcement reasons or because fixes were
  implemented into the next HCK release. Those errata won't be extended again.

  You can check the status of all errata anytime on the Hardware Dashboard. To narrow down the list, use the filters
  to view only active, expired, or expiring within 30 days. You can also search by
  ID and title.

  Thanks, Steve

  [News] Windows HCK Refresh Coming at Windows 8 RTM
  Steve Leo MVP 2012年8月4日 上午 06:37

  Windows HCK Refresh Coming at Windows 8 RTM

  At
  Windows 8 RTM, a refreshed Windows Hardware Certification Kit (HCK) will be
  available. The kit will include all QFEs released since Windows 8 Release
  Preview, plus a few more. You'll be able to download the RTM kit from the same
  place you download the current kit.

  The
  Hardware Developer Portal will accept certification submissions from either the
  Release Preview or the RTM co-release version of the HCK during a 90-day
  transition. After the transition period ends, the RTM HCK will be the only
  acceptable HCK version. The older Windows Logo Kit (WLK) 1.6 isn't affected by
  the update and currently remains available for submissions.
