    Installed Visual Studio, SDK, and WDK, but devcon command not recognized.


    Hello, I used the instructions and links found here: Download the Windows Driver Kit WDK - Windows drivers Microsoft Learn to download/install the necessary software and drivers to use the DevCon commands. After this install and computer reboot, I have tried using devcon and receive the message: 'devcon' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file I suspect that I somehow messed up the installation process, but I never had any errors or warnings and I was sure to include all the extra components as directed in the instructions. Is there some way

    :)

    Windows WDK on Visual Studio 2017 Community

    John you are correct, Windows WDK is not currently supported on Visual Studio 2017. Windows WDK RS1 and RS2 are both supported on Visual Studio 2015.

    Please Note: There is no need to uninstall Visual Studio 2017, you can run Visual Studio 2015 and 2017 side by side

    Windows WDK on Visual Studio 2017 Community

    Thanks Dave, what about the message during the WDK install about being unable to develop Modern Apps? Is that anything to worry about in terms of losing functionality in VS2017? If my install of VS2015 Community is affected but not the VS2017 Community that's
    feasible, I only need 2015 for doing driver development. I do still need 2017 for UWP, Xamarin, MVC, etc.

    It also says that same message on this website: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/windows-driver-kit

    "Important: If you install the WDK, you will not be able to develop Modern Applications."

    Just don't know what all that entails, that sounds very broad.
