Driver Profiles

Driver Profiles organize driver bundles for Windows deployment.

Open Software > Driver Profiles.

Use driver profiles to group WinPE driver bundles by device model, hardware family, or deployment need. OS image install workflows and WinPE build jobs can reference these profiles when extra network, storage, or chipset drivers are required.

Table

The table shows:

• profile name and description
• manufacturer and model reference metadata
• number of uploaded bundles
• edit and delete actions, when permitted

Use search to find profiles by name, manufacturer, model, or description.

Creating Profiles

A profile contains:

• name
• optional manufacturer
• optional model
• optional description

Use manufacturer and model fields as operator-facing reference metadata. They help deployment operators select the correct profile, but the values do not have to exactly match hardware inventory strings.

Driver Bundles

A driver profile can contain uploaded ZIP bundles.

Upload ZIP archives that extract to INF-based Windows drivers. EXE and MSI installers are not supported for driver bundles.

During deployment, the agent applies archive path, entry-count, expanded-size, depth, compression-ratio, and free-space limits before publishing the extracted driver directory. See Agent Runtime Limits.

Each bundle has:

• bundle name
• uploaded ZIP archive
• original file name shown in the bundle list

Users can add and delete bundles from the driver profile editor. Use descriptive bundle names such as Intel Wi-Fi card or Storage controller so deployment operators know why the bundle exists.

Driver profiles are most useful when paired with Hardware Inventory and OS Images.
