Cannot Compile Windows MSR #871

Open aaronsuydam opened 1 week ago

aaronsuydam commented 1 week ago

Hey yall, no matter what I do, I cannot seem to get the windows MSR to compile from source. Here is the error, having followed the instructions exactly. Which were, download the source code, install the windows SDK and windows driver kit, then run this command : MSBuild.exe MSR.vcxproj -property:Configuration=Release -property:Platform=x64

I have tried updating the include path, but it only gives me more errors....

This is the error:

Update, after opening the vcxproj in visual studio and manually specifying the location of the WDK include files, and adding a preprocessor definition to specify the target architecture, it compiles, however, the msr.sys file is not generated. I know next to nothing about Windows Driver development.
