Hardware development kits for Windows 10, Version 1709 (October 2017)

Question

Install the latest hardware development tools to build, test and deploy drivers; test and measure your hardware running Windows; and customize, assess, and deploy Windows 10 on your hardware.

WDK: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/windows-driver-kit
WinDbg: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/download-windbg
HLK: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/windows-hardware-lab-kit
ADK: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/windows-assessment-deployment-kit

Known issues for the WDK:

Unable to build a project targeting a SDK version older than 1709 (version 10.0.16299.0) with WDK 1709 (build 16299)

One of following errors is reported:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(460,5): error MSB6004: The specified task executable location "\stampinf.exe" is invalid.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(780,5): error MSB6004: The specified task executable location "\tracewpp.exe" is invalid.

Workaround: Add to your project .vcxproj file the following lines after the first one:

<PropertyGroup>
    <WDKBinRoot Condition="'$(WDKBinRoot)' == ''">$(WindowsSdkDir)bin</WDKBinRoot>
    <WDKBinRoot_x86>$(WDKBinRoot)\x86</WDKBinRoot_x86>
    <WDKBinRoot_x64>$(WDKBinRoot)\x64</WDKBinRoot_x64>
</PropertyGroup>

You can also add these lines to WindowsDriver.Default.props or WindowsDriver.Shared.props (located under <Windows 10 Kits installation root>\build, by default “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\build” or “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\build”) to allow all projects to build successfully without any modifications.

Unable to build projects under VS2015 after installing WDK 1709 (version 16299) on a machine with WDK 1607 (build 14393)

One of following errors is reported:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(476,9): error MSB4064: The "ProviderName" parameter is not supported by the "StampInf" task. Verify the parameter exists on the task, and it is a settable public instance property.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(1526,9): error MSB4064: The "KitVersion" parameter is not supported by the "Telemetry" task. Verify the parameter exists on the task, and it is a settable public instance property.

Workaround: As WDK has moved to provide compatibility with VS2017, a few file updates required by the VS2015 add-on are not being bundled by the latest version of WDK. WDK 1703 (version 15063) includes these updates, and therefore installing this version will resolve the issue. If your project targets an older version of WDK, you might also require doing the workaround previously provided.

Answer 1

Always getting stuck at 0% "Acquiring Windows Driver Kit"

Answer 2

WDK does not installing. 

Answer 3

I am also stuck at 0%. Cannot even cancel the installation after some minutes because the whole things freezes.

Answer 4

Hi...

I have VS2017 (15.4) Community, Professional, Enterprise and Visual Studio Build Tools 2017 (BuildTools) installed on the same computer.

The extension for integration with VS2017 (15.4), fail if the Visual Studio Build Tools 2017 (BuildTools) is installed. The installer try to integrate with Visual Studio Build Tools 2017 (BuildTools), which is wrong. The installer is considering Visual Studio Build Tools 2017 (BuildTools) as an installed instance of VS2017 and abort all installation.

Answer 6

Still not working.

I've found 1709 WDK on msdn and downloaded .iso! And it installed successfully.

Answer 7

Did you end up downloading the Insider Preview ISO?
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewWDK

Answer 8

Fixed!

Answer 9

All, we apologize for the issues downloading the kits.  There was an errant URL that needed to be redirected.  This has been fixed, and there should be no further problems regarding downloading.

Answer 10

vs2015,vs2017, wdk 14393, 16299 side by side

It seems new WDK breaks compilation if you have installed vs2015 and vs2017 and wdk14393 and 16299 sid by side on the same machine.

3>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(476,9): error MSB4064: The "ProviderName" parameter is not supported by the "StampInf" task. Verify the parameter exists on the task, and it is a settable public
 instance property.

StampInf task in $(WDKContentRoot)build\bin\Microsoft.DriverKit.Build.Tasks.14.dll does not have "StampInf" parameter.

The same issue with Telemetry task - parameter "KitVersion"

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(1526,9): error MSB4064: The "KitVersion" parameter is not supported by the "Telemetry" task. Verify the parameter exists on the task, and it is a settable public
 instance property.

Wpp is also broken

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build\WindowsDriver.common.targets(780,5): error MSB6004: The specified task executable location "\tracewpp.exe" is invalid.

Actually VS2017 with WDK 16299 defines 3 new properties (WDKBinRoot, WDKBinRoot_x64,WDKBinRoot_x86) that are not if your project uses wdk 14393.

Here is patch that works for me in C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\build:

downloaded ewdk1709.iso and 7z extracted it to e:\ewdk in a win7 x86 machine

created a directory in desktop and added this file

#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
int main (void) {
    printf("testing ewdk 1709\n");
    MessageBox(NULL,"Testing" ,"EWDK 1709" ,MB_OK);
    std::cout << "testing ewdk 1709" << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

made a bat file to set ewdk environment  containing

C:\Users\HP\Desktop\crap>type setewdkenv.bat
@echo off

latest 1709 windbg cant find the pdb  older 15063 windbg appears to find the pdb and acknowledges it as a private pdb

but is unable to resolve any type information from the pdb

any pointers to sort this out would be helpful

Answer 12

ntverp.h - VER_PRODUCTBUILD remain set to 10011 in all Win10 WDK/SDK

With old WDK you were updating VER_PRODUCTBUILD

I think this macro were useful when it had proper value.

You could write your shared code compatible with multiple wdk/sdk because you could ifdef code that needed older or newer wdk.

#include <ntverp.h>
...

#if VER_PRODUCTBUILD < 16299
...
#endif

 

Since you stopped updating it we lost this ability to prepare code for new windows release.

Could you please reconsider updating value of this macro in WDK release?

Answer 13

Some tools like pkggen.exe and sign.cmd are all missing after I uninstall the previous version WDK and install the newest version WDK(16299).

There are only DLL files in this path:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Tools\bin\i386

Answer 14

I have found workaround - download and extract WDK and later on manually run each msi installation package. Missing tools will appear.

Answer 16

I got the exact same problem as you when I tried to install SDK and my computer is running Win 10 version 1703. Could you please advise which .iso you download to fix this? Thanks!

Answer 17

Hi Bob,

    why still blocking when I install 1709 WDK, it shows that there are some error to redirect "Windows Driver Kit Headers and Libs-x86_en-us.msi.
