A WHQL signature is good for life?

Hi,

If we ship our drivers today, signed with WLK 1.4 - will the signature be
valid for ever? Can the driver be installed also after WLK 1.5 and later are
released?

Once your driver is signed, that driver package is valid forever (unless
you irritate Microsoft and they revoke your certificate). You don't have
to recertify under the later WLKs unless you need to make changes.

Exactly what I was wondering.

Thanks, Tim.
