Driver Model Settings Properties for Driver Projects

Sets the basic properties for a kernel-mode or user-mode driver, including the WDF library version and preprocessor definitions.

Setting driver model properties for driver projects

  1. Open the property pages for your driver project. Select and hold (or right-click) the driver project in Solution Explorer and select Properties.
  2. In the property pages for the driver project, select Configuration Properties and then select Driver Model Settings.
  3. Set the properties for the project.

Type of driver
The type of driver when the driver Configuration type is Driver. Note that this option is available only when projects use the WindowsKernelModeDriver8.0 toolset.

Possible values are:

  • WDM (including all miniport/port drivers such as NDIS or StorPort).
  • KMDF A KMDF driver.
  • Export driver (WDM) A WDM driver that exports functions which other drivers can call. For more information, see Creating Export Drivers.

KMDF Version Major
When the type of driver is KMDF, this option specifies the major version of KMDF that will be used when compiling your driver.

The KMDF_VERSION_MAJOR entry informs the MSBuild utility that it must link the driver to the KMDF library.

For more information, see Framework Library Versioning.

KMDF Version Minor (Target Version) (was KMDF Version Minor prior to Windows 10, version 1803) When the type of driver is KMDF, this option specifies the minor version of KMDF that will be used when compiling your driver.

For more information, see Framework Library Versioning. If you do not specify KMDF Version Minor (Target Version), Visual Studio uses the following defaults:

  • Windows 10 / Windows 11: 1.15
  • Windows 8 / Windows 8.1: 1.11
  • Windows 7: 1.9

KMDF Version Minor (Minimum Required) (optional, available starting in Windows 10, version 1803) Starting in KMDF version 1.25 and UMDF version 2.25 on Windows 10 version 1803 (Redstone 4), you can build a KMDF driver that targets a span of framework versions. Use this optional setting to specify the minimum KMDF version of this range.

For details, see Building a WDF driver for multiple versions of Windows.

UMDF Version Major
When you have a UMDF driver, this option specifies the major version of UMDF that will be used when compiling your driver. See UMDF Version History. When you have a UMDF driver, the Configuration type is Dynamic Library (.dll).

UMDF Version Minor (Target Version) (was UMDF Version Minor prior to Windows 10, version 1803) When you have a UMDF driver, this option specifies the minor version of UMDF that will be used when compiling your driver. If you do not specify UMDF Version Minor (Target Version), Visual Studio uses the following defaults:

For major version = 2:

  • Windows 10 / Windows 11: 2.15
  • Others: 2.0

For major version = 1:

  • Windows 8 and above: 1.11
  • Windows 7: 1.9

UMDF Version Minor (Minimum Required) (optional, available starting in Windows 10, version 1803)

Starting in KMDF version 1.25 and UMDF version 2.25 on Windows 10 version 1803 (Redstone 4), you can build a UMDF driver that targets a span of framework versions. Use this optional setting to specify the minimum UMDF version of this range.

For details, see Building a WDF driver for multiple versions of Windows.

Allow Date, Time, and Timestamp
Defines the standard C/CPP macros for __DATE__, __TIME__, __TIMESTAMP__.

Override Target Configuration Preprocessor Definitions
Overrides the default values for preprocessing symbols: _WIN32_WINNT, WINVER, WINNT, and NTDDI_VERSION for your source file. Note that the default values are controlled by the current target configuration.
