This topic is part of the WDI driver model released in Windows 10. The WDI driver model is in maintenance mode and will only receive high priority fixes. WiFiCx is the Wi-Fi driver model released in Windows 11. We recommend that you use WiFiCx to take advantage of the latest features.

The MiniportWdiPostAdapterRestart handler function is called by the Microsoft component after it finishes restarting the data path as part of the NDIS MiniportRestart requirements.

This is a WDI miniport handler inside NDIS_MINIPORT_DRIVER_WDI_CHARACTERISTICS.

The NDIS MiniportRestart requirements are handled by the Microsoft component. As part of MiniportRestart, it undoes the data path pause work that it performed as part of MiniportPause. The WDI IHV miniport can optionally register for a MiniportWdiPostAdapterRestart callback that is called by the Microsoft component after it finishes restarting the data path.

Note  You must declare the function by using the MINIPORT_WDI_POST_ADAPTER_RESTART type. For more information, see the following Examples section.
