Driver re-install forces reboot #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install driver using dokanctl
2. Uninstall driver
3. Re-install driver

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Dokanctl fails to re-install the driver. I know that this is mentioned in 
the readme (so this can be considered an enhancement request), but I would 
like to understand why. The starting of the driver seems to be failing with 
a code 2 (file not found). It would be nice if the driver could be updated 
without requiring a system reboot. From an end-user perspective this would 
be a very desirable feature.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Windows XP, SP3
Dokan 0.3.9

Please provide any additional information below.

I really think so. From a driver developer perspective, it is very annoying to 
reboot  
computer every time.
But unfortunately, Windows requires reboot to reload a file system driver.
