While i build the Sample "Windows-driver-samples\audio\simpleaudiosample" i am getting Error "The build tools for WindowsKernelModeDriver10.0 Can not be found, to build using the WindowsKernelModeDriver 10.0 build tools ,Please install WindowsKernelModeDriver 10.0 build tool, Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current visual studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right -click the solution "Retarget solution"."
I have checked all the possible ways like checked in Win11, update WDK and SDK with compatible version.
And currently i am using VS 2022 and Windows 11 OS to build this project.

Hello,
I encountered a similar issue and was able to resolve it. Here are some steps you might find helpful:
-
Verify SDK and WDK Versions: Ensure that you have the correct versions of the Windows SDK and Windows Driver Kit (WDK) installed. Compatibility with your version of Visual Studio is crucial.
-
Integration with Visual Studio: If you haven't already, integrate the Windows SDK and WDK with Visual Studio:
- Navigate to the directory where the Windows Kits are installed, typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10.
- Look for the Vsix within the Windows Kits directory.
- Find the file named WDK.vsix and double-click to run the installer. Make sure to close Visual Studio before doing this to avoid any conflicts.
I hope this helps!
