Totarget Windows 8.1, Windows 8, and Windows 7, install an older WDK and an older version of Visual Studio either on the same machine or on a separate machine. For links to older kits, see Other WDK downloads.
Join the Windows Insider Program to get WDK Insider Preview builds. For installation instructions for the Windows Insider Preview builds, see Installing preview versions of the Windows Driver Kit (WDK).
The WDK NuGet package consists of essential libraries, headers, DLL, tools, and metadata used for building Windows drivers that can be shared and supported by modern CI/CD pipelines. Users can access and consume the NuGet packages directly from
nuget.org within Visual Studio. Using NuGet with the WDK provides a convenient solution for WDK acquisition and updates. It manages dependencies such as the SDK, to help keep the driver development tool chain up to date. For more information, see Install the latest WDK using NuGet - Step by Step.
Starting with WDK version 10.0.26100.1, the WDK now supports development, testing and deployment of drivers on ARM64 machines. The WDK/EWDK can be installed and run natively on ARM64 hardware, in addition to the previously supported emulation of x86 KMDF/UMDF2 drivers on ARM64 hardware. There is also support for debugging and deployment of drivers to an ARM64 target machine from both ARM64 and x64 host machines. The process of installing WDK/EWDK on ARM64 machines will automatically identify and install all the necessary dependencies including build tools, binaries, and libraries.
The provided links for the SDK and the WDK have matching build numbers, which is always required for the kits to work together. If you decide to install your own SDK/WDK pair, perhaps for a different Windows version, ensure that the build numbers match. For more details, see Kit versioning.
As an alternative to downloading Visual Studio, the SDK, and the WDK, you can download the EWDK, which is a standalone, self-contained command-line environment for building drivers. It includes Visual Studio Build Tools, the SDK, and the WDK.
You can optionally use the Visual Studio interface with the build tools provided in the EWDK. To do this, ensure that the Visual Studio major version matches the version of the Visual Studio Build Tools in the EWDK. For example, Visual Studio 2022 works with the EWDK that contain VS17.X build tools. For a list of Visual Studio 2022 version numbers, see Visual Studio 2022 Releases.
To build a driver, the build number of your SDK installation must match the build number of your WDK installation. The QFE values does not need to match unless your driver uses functionality that is only available in the headers included with a later QFE.
A quick way to see the full build string for locally installed kits is to go to Windows settings (Win+I), navigate to Apps, then Installed apps, and in the Search box type kit. The full build string appears to the right of the kit name. If you navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include, note that the QFE shown there is hardcoded to .0, so this is not a reliable way to check your QFE identifier. Also note that when you install a kit, the new installation replaces any previously existing installation of the same build number. When you install Visual Studio with the Desktop development with C++ workload, if the installation payload includes the Windows SDK, the right-hand Summary pane also shows a hardcoded .0 for QFE.
This is exceedingly frustrating. Not only am I trying to run it in Windows 11, I'm trying to run it on ARM. What's frustrating is that the driver is just the FTDI D2XX driver repackaged. They don't need to have their own driver. They could just use whatever FTDI D2XX driver is installed on the system.
Regarding the issue with the USB blaster, as mention by ak6dn there will be issues regarding installing the USB blaster in Windows 11 because It is not officially supported yet by Intel. We cannot sure that it will 100% works in windows 11. As for work around to troubleshoot the issue, you can follow the instruction from the link that I have attached below.
I downloaded Quartus Prime 22.1 today, and the provided Blaster driver still is refused for an expired certificate. How can Intel afford to provide drivers with expired certificates? For more than a year, the driver installation requires jumping through hoops and searching driver patches for the most current versions of your toolchain.
Bad Image
%hs is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0x
I had installed Quartus Prime 22.1 prior to Quartus Prime 18.1. I encountered the unrecognised driver issue as well. I have tried to fix it with the solution from @Roger36 to no success. Hence the rolling-back to Quartus 18.1.
To my surprise, during the installation for 18.1, I was prompted with the install USB driver checkbox. I then continued with the installation. When the FPGA is connected, the driver should be installed under JTAG cables in the device manager.

Hello.Just purchased a new Dell tower and am bummed that my trusty imageCLASS D420 will not work with windows 11(at least i don`t think as i cannot find an 11 driver.Much obliged if anyone knows a way i can get them to communicate.BIG thanx!
Hi Hector - thanks for the reply. I am able now to connect to the printer with a USB cable, but through my wired network. Is there a factory reset procedure so I can reset all of the network features?
Windows 10 drivers do not work for me on a Windows 11 HP Pavilion, installing as a local printer. Printer installs but does not print test page, nor a Word document. Document just stays in print queue.
Addition by JustDon: My problem has been solved. Here is what I think I did wrong. First, I had the printer plugged in to the PC and turned on when I ran setup.exe to install the drivers. Second, I tried to install it in LPT1, the parallel port when it needs a USB port. With the drivers improperly installed, there was no choice of a USB port. Properly installed, a port named USB001 was added to the port list. An aside: I read that some older printers can't run on the new high speed USB ports, but after I installed it in a USB 2.0 port, I moved it to a "super speed" usb port and it worked fine. So yes, the ImageClass D420 can be installed on a Windows 11 PC (mine is a HP Pavillion) using the Windows 10 drivers, as Hector said, but if you don't install them correctly, you may mistakenly conclude it won't work.
The CP210x USB to UART Bridge Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers are required for device operation as a Virtual COM Port to facilitate host communication with CP210x products. These devices can also interface to a host using the direct access driver.
The CP210x Manufacturing DLL and Runtime DLL have been updated and must be used with v 6.0 and later of the CP210x Windows VCP Driver. Application Note Software downloads affected are AN144SW.zip, AN205SW.zip and AN223SW.zip. If you are using a 5.x driver and need support you can download Legacy OS Software.
I see that the GPIB-USB-B compatibility ended with version NI 488.2 version 17.6. I have 20 installed so the 17.6 install doesn't fully run since a higher version is installed. Do I have to uninstall 20 to use my NI hardware?
Why yes. It turns out that's exactly what I have to do. I uninstalled 20 and installed 17.6 and it works. Does that mean it will keep that driver if I upgrade to 20 now or will it kill the device? I guess I'll see when I add a device that isn't compatible with 17.6.
I have two devices to be operated simultaneously. But one device was not supportet in v17.6 yet the other is the GPIB-USB-B. So I had to find a way to get them both running in the latest environment as I had no option to uninstall v20.0.
We are trying to communicate between an Agilent light meter via a Keysight software through GPIB-USB-B. I see that the GPIB-USB-B is supported by NI 488.2 v17.6 and older drivers. I get a runtime Engine error of LabVIEW.
Here you can download drivers for DisplayLink USB graphics chipsets incorporated in your dock, adapter or monitor. We recommend to update to the latest driver to address any potential security issue, fix bugs, improve performance and add new features.
