Hello!
I am trying to create simple KMDF driver using this tutorial: Write a universal Hello World driver (KMDF) - Windows drivers

I am using Virtualbox with HOST OS and target OS being Win10x64.
I have provised target PC successfully (via serial pipe), with one error:

[HRESULT: 0x800706BA] Failed to create the test host process for out of process test execution. (Unable to connect to Te.Service on the local machine. Te.Service is needed to launch a host process. Please restart Te.Service if it is already installed. (Failed to initialize the RPC connection.))

After that I used this manual Te.Service - Windows drivers to create Te.Service and launch it.

Then I have tried to deploy my driver, but get error:

[HRESULT 0x800706BE] A failure occurred while running a test operation: 'DriverTestTasks::_DriverPreparation'. (The process hosting the test code dropped the connection with the TAEF engine while invoking a test operation. It terminated with an exit code of 0xC0000409.)

Looks like the TAEF is the problem. How could I fix it?

P.S.
I find this SO post unanswered, which seems to be the same issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46710375/kdmf-driver-example-on-windows-8-1
