/rules <option>
Options for rules that can be disabled, including:query - Shows current status of controllable rules.reset - Resets all rules to their default state.default ID - Sets rule ID to its default state. For the supported rules, the rule ID is the Bug Check 0xC4 (DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION) parameter 1 value.disable ID - Disables specified rule ID. For the supported rules, the rule ID is the Bug Check 0xC4 (DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION) parameter 1 value.
/standard
Activates the "standard" or default Driver Verifier options after the next restart. The standard options are Special Pool, Force IRQL Checking, Pool Tracking, I/O Verification, Deadlock Detection, DMA Verification, Security Checks, Miscellaneous Checks, and DDI compliance checking. This is equivalent to /flags 0x209BB.[!NOTE] Starting in Windows 10 versions after 1803, using /flags 0x209BB will no longer automatically enable WDF verification. Use the /standard syntax to enable standard options, with WDF verification included.
/volatile
Changes the settings without rebooting the computer. Volatile settings take effect immediately.You can use the /volatile parameter with the /flags parameter to enable and disable some options without rebooting. You can also use /volatile with the /adddriver and /removedriver parameters to start or stop the verification of a driver without rebooting, even if the Driver Verifier utility isn't running. For more information, see Using Volatile Settings.
/adddriver <volatiledriverlist>
Adds the specified drivers from the volatile settings. To specify multiple drivers, list their names, separated by spaces. Wildcard values, such as n.sys, aren't supported.
/removedriver <volatiledriverlist>
Removes the specified drivers from the volatile settings. To specify multiple drivers, list their names, separated by spaces. Wildcard values, such as n.sys, aren't supported.
/reset
Clears all the Driver Verifier utility settings. After the next restart, no drivers will be verified.
/querysettings
Displays a summary of the options that will be activated and drivers that will be verified after the next boot. The display doesn't include drivers and options added by using the /volatile parameter. For other ways to view these settings, see Viewing Driver Verifier Settings.
/query
Displays a summary of the Driver Verifier utility's current activity. The Level field in the display is the hexadecimal value of options set with the /volatile parameter. For explanations of each statistic, see Monitoring Global Counters and Monitoring Individual Counters.
/domain <types> <options>
Controls the verifier extension settings. The following verifier extension types are supported:wdm - Enables verifier extension for WDM drivers.ndis - Enables verifier extension for networking drivers.ks - Enables verifier extension for kernel mode streaming drivers.audio - Enables verifier extension for audio drivers.. The following extension options are supported:rules.default - Enables default validation rules for the selected verifier extension.rules.all - Enables all validation rules for the selected verifier extension.
/logging
Enables logging for violated rules detected by the selected verifier extensions.
/livedump
Enables live memory dump collection for violated rules detected by the selected verifier extensions.
/?
Displays command-line help.
