Sorry, there is no real tap-windows user documentation, as it is part of the OpenVPN project - so what you want to look at is "tun.c" in the OpenVPN source tree. It has all the code to talk to tun/tap on various operating systems, including Windows with tap6.

What is it that you want to know?

How to build and sign the driver is documented in the community wiki.

How to generally develop windows NDIS drivers is documented (in very fine detail) in the MSDN documentation.

Sorry, I didn't describe my needs well.There was no documentation for Windows tap in 2015, and I thought there might be in 2019, so I asked tentatively.I was just looking for an API documentation for Windows tap because I needed it to solve some problems.But I've found other ways to solve the problem, perhaps without using Windows tap.Thank you for your reply.
