Driver installation utility

Binaries - drv_ctl_v1b.rar/tgz (14.8 Kb/15.4 Kb)
Sources - drv_ctl_v1b_src.rar/tgz (4.1 Kb/4.2 Kb)

Improved command prompt driver install/uninstall utility.

Usage:
    drv_ctl --inst <driver name> <.sys location>
        to install and start a kernel-mode device driver
    drv_ctl --inst-nostart <driver name> <.sys location>
        to install (without starting) a kernel-mode device driver
    drv_ctl --remove <driver name> 
        to remove a kernel-mode device driver
Example:
    drv_ctl --inst simpldrv M:\work\dev_zero\inst_drv\Release\obj\i386\simpldrv.sys

PS. I'm planning significant extension of capabilities of this utility.

Fixed bugs with command line parsing. I'm sorry, I didn't check the previous build

Version v1a has different command line syntax. I have also added capability of installing drivers without autostart. It is better to avoid starting some drivers from User Mode :)
Unfortunately, I have not checked it before publishing. It was buggy. So use the next build v1b
