Hi,
I have a kmdf driver for a PCI device. When I use the net stop command I get
an error that "The requested pause, continue, or stop is not valid for this
service.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2191."
How can I overcome it and make net start\stop working on my driver?
Thanks.

You cannot do this. Since the driver is for PCI it is PNP and PNP drivers
do not work with net stop\start.

net start/stop does not work for PnP driver.

Use SetupDiCallClassInstaller with proper opcode to do this for a PnP
devnode. DEVCON source is a sample.
