Error message: "Can't install the dokan driver" #72

I've got Windows 10 with dokany 0.8.0 installed. When I try to mount a drive I am getting message: "Can't install the dokan driver". What's wrong?

sanitas2 commented 8 years ago

I tried it with dokan-1.0-RC1 and it works fine.

I would close the issue but maybe someone would want to update some docs?

Dokan-1.0-RC1 + win-sshfs 1.6.0-RC2 + windows 10 worked fine for me last night on my home computer

Dokan-1.0-RC1 + win-sshfs 1.6.0-RC2 + windows 7 enterprise doesn't work for me right now on my work computer. I get this same error

Error: found the reason! I installed Dokan-1.0-RC1 + redist and windows brought up an error like:

see https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany/issues/187

@qaisjp solution for your problem should be this: http://www.queryadmin.com/147/enable-disable-windows-7-test-mode/ test mode should allow you use unsigned drivers

wUFr commented 8 years ago

i dont think unsigned driver is same problem @sanitas2 has.

and i think winssh works with 1.0.0-RC1 or older 0.7.4 if you have older version of winssh

try this tutorial: https://github.com/Foreveryone-cz/win-sshfs/pull/73/commits/e303fca29a92d92f3cb6248967ad5e20c1299d0b

Had the same issue, with dokan-1.0-RC1 it works fine

Windows 8.1 x64 Pro, dokan-1.0-RC1, release-1.6.0-rc2.zip, vc_redist.x64.exe, vc_redist.x86.exe - can't install the dokan driver on mounting. :(

wUFr commented 8 years ago

tried switching windows into test mode? that could help, i tested it on Home edition, that may not be so sensitive to unsigned drivers

HI,

I have followed this tutorial : https://github.com/dimov-cz/win-sshfs/pull/73/commits/e303fca29a92d92f3cb6248967ad5e20c1299d0b

I installed all things, and I turned already windows 7 to test mode using this tutorial: http://www.queryadmin.com/147/enable-disable-windows-7-test-mode/

But when I want run "WinSshFS.exe" (rc2), I get the error message:

"Can't install the dokan driver"

Any help please?

Thanks

try copying dokan1.dll from "\Program Files\Dokan\Dokan Library-1.0.0" (dokan installation folder) into winssh folder and replace current one, if that wont work, idk.

Tutorial was made on win 8.1 x64 and so far worked on win10

https://github.com/Foreveryone-cz/win-sshfs/pull/73/commits/e303fca29a92d92f3cb6248967ad5e20c1299d0b worked for me. I got errors installing the vc redists but the ones that came with Visual Studio 2015 seem to have worked just fine.

Win 10

@wUFr Your tutorial link seems to be broken (permissions?). The link in animebk's comment worked though.

wUFr commented 8 years ago

@hovissimo link updated. I removed my winssh fork, so thats probably why :)

scootime commented 7 years ago

I am running Windows 7 Pro SP1 and had this issue. What worked for me was to put Windows into test mode per these instructions:

http://www.queryadmin.com/147/enable-disable-windows-7-test-mode/

After putting Windows into test mode and rebooting, I ran Win-SSHFS and mounted various servers, which allowed the Dokan driver to be 'installed'. Afterward, I took Windows back out of test mode per the same instructions (above, in the link) and rebooted again and Win-SSHFS continued to work properly afterward.

Hope this helps!
