Before Installing

  • This driver release is for testing purposes only. Not for production use!
  • Make backups/snapshots before installing!
  • The drivers in this package are testsigned and require enabling testsigning mode. Disable Secure Boot, then run the included script testsign/install.ps1 as Administrator to configure Windows and install the necessary signer certificates. Your VM will reboot automatically.
  • If you encounter installation/uninstallation errors, please try again with one of the following commands:
For installing:
msiexec.exe /i XenDrivers-x64.msi /l*vx install.log

For uninstalling:
msiexec.exe /x XenDrivers-x64.msi /l*vx uninstall.log

Please include this log along with the file C:\Windows\INF\setupapi.dev.log in your bug report. These files will help us troubleshoot any installation issues.

Changes since 8.2.2-beta

  • This release is based on upstream 9.1-series drivers, which includes the PV Mouse/Keyboard driver and PV Console Driver. You can access the PV console with the following command from a XCP-ng host:
xl console -t pv <vmname>
  • New installer with clean uninstallation and multiple install/uninstall safety checks.
  • New XenClean utility for cleanly removing XCP-ng and Citrix drivers.
  • Multiple driver stability fixes.
  • Volume Shadow Service Provider is no longer included. (XCP-ng 8.1 and newer no longer support quiescent snapshots)
  • Management Agent is currently not included. Xen Orchestra may show "Management agent not detected", but shutdown and reboot features will work normally. We're looking to bring back features of the management agent in the next releases.
  • Older Windows versions are no longer supported. The driver requires at a minimum Windows 10 1607 or Windows Server 2016.
