I have a very basic question. What's is the difference between platforms toolsets WindowsUserModeDriver10.0 and WindowsApplicationForDrivers10.0 ? I have come across WindowsApplicationForDrivers10.0 with Configuration Type as DLL. Where exactly is the application of WindowsApplicationForDrivers type projects? Can't we substitute this with WindowsUserModeDriver ?
