I have a driver installing using DriverPackageInstall, this API tries to start to driver after install. I expect my driver should not try to start after install, it should start on next reboot.
Any help will appreciated.

It might help if you say why you expect a reboot to be what starts the driver. Why is it a problem if the driver can be installed and started without a reboot? Microsoft has been trying to minimize reboots for a long time! – PhilDW Jul 04 '18 at 22:22

Thanks Phil, our requirement is driver should start on boot not on install or demand start. – user3664223 Jul 05 '18 at 11:49

The reason appears to be that the DriverPackageInstall API in DIFX has no option to do what you ask. It's not obvious why this is tagged as a windows installer issue when it's DIFX problem. – PhilDW Jul 05 '18 at 20:57

Sorry I wasn't aware Driver installation is not part of windows installer part. – user3664223 Jul 06 '18 at 11:07
