In my computer , the vm i installed was windows xp, but according
to the "TEMU installation and user manual
"book, when Configuring a new VM, the manual book i found has some
ambiguity:“testdrv.sys” and "testdrv.reg
", it said that we need copy the "testdrv.sys" file to "C:\Windows
\system32\drivers" directory, but then double-click the "testdrv.reg"
file, i has some confused: it tells me to copy *.sys file , but then
tells me to double-click the *.reg file, they are not the same one.
i doubt whether the author has a clerical error...
another question: how to copy the file "testdrv.sys" into the vm,
i set the network, but it does not work for me . and the vm can not
connect to the host os , hope someone give me some advice.

I'm sorry to hear you found the manual confusing. However the
distinction between "testdrv.sys" and "testdrv.reg" is intentional:
there are two different files that you have to use in two different
ways in order to complete the installation of the driver.
"testdrv.sys" is the executable driver code, which you need to copy
into the system directory. "testdrv.reg" consists of instructions for
modifying the Windows registry, which are needed to enable the
driver. The "testdrv.reg" file is pretty short, so you could
potentially just make the changes manually in regedit, but our hope
was that the script would be easier to use.

Configuring the TEMU network should work the same as configuring a
network under QEMU, so you might want to look at QEMU-oriented
documentation for more details. If you're just copying files, I find
that the "-net user" style of network with a software NAT, which is
the default, is the easiest to use. The user manual also has
instructions for using the "tap" network device, which is more complex
to set up but provides more control of exactly which packets get to
the virtual machine.

You can also transfer files using a virtual disk image. Perhaps the
easiest one to set up for an inbound file transfer would be to make
".iso" CD image as if you were burning the files to a CD-R, and then
attach to this in TEMU.

Hope this helps,

the problem has resolved , thanks very much!
i copy the .sys file and add the regiser information into my vm os,
now it can work as the manual book said , and it can catch the
processes running in my OS.
