I'm trying to run the sample program in the Dokan download. I'm trying the sample for mirror. But it says it can't assign the drive letter. I'm wondering if I have to do something to load the kernel half. Here is what I'm trying from the sample:

    mirror /r c:\temp /l c:\mount dokan

Hi Eddy, 

Yes, you need to install the driver at this point. Please see https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany/wiki

I re-installed with DokanSetup.exe but that didn't make any difference. I did re-boot.

    W:\Dokan Source\dokany-master\Win32\Debug>mirror /r c:\temp /l c:\mount dokan
     Can't install driver

I got it working. I had to uninstall then reinstall the package. BTW there is a bug in the install procedure. It often says that this is not supported by the OS. And sometimes it thinks that the library is already running. Hopefully the developers will see this and fix it.
