### Building a Driver Using the Command Line (MSBuild)
You can build a driver from the command line using the Visual Studio Command Prompt window and the Microsoft Build Engine (MSBuild.exe) Previous versions of the WDK used the Windows Build utility (Build.exe) and provided separate build environment windows for each of the supported build configurations. You can now use the Visual Studio Command Prompt window for all build configurations.

-Installation

+## Installation
No INF file is provided with this sample because the *fastfat* file system driver (fastfat.sys) is already part of the Windows operating system. You can build a private version of this file system and use it as a replacement for the native driver.
