Introduction
Do you know what the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework 1.11 is? Me neither, before I wrote this blog post.
In this blog post, I cover what the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework is, how to download version 1.11, and how to add it to your image.
What is the Microsoft Kernel-Mode Driver Framework?
The Kernel-Mode Driver Framework is a framework for device drivers that Microsoft provides to developers to create and update kernel-mode drivers. It is one framework provided in the Windows Driver Frameworks.
This driver framework is provided for Microsoft Windows 2000 and later operating systems.
As of this writing (3rd April 2020), the latest version is 1.27.
Download Microsoft Kernel-Mode Driver Framework 1.11 (KB 2685811)
The error described in the introduction is most likely because the base image is not updated with the latest Kernel Mode Driver Framework, with a version of 1.11 at the time of this writing.
You can download the Microsoft Knowledge Base article KB2685811.
Click the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2685811
This patch is also included in the latest Windows Update patches, so if your image is fully updated, you shouldn’t be seeing this issue.
How to add Microsoft Kernel-Mode Driver Framework 1.11 (KB 2685811) to your image
As far as I know, there are three different solutions to this issue:
1. Update the base image with the hotfix.
2. Install the newest updates on the base image. The hotfix is included in the Windows Update patches.
3. Inject the hotfix offline. I have not tried this myself, but here is a blog post on how to do it:

Dear
I am facing the kernel mode 1.11 problem.Can you plese guide me
how to Update the base image with the hotfix.
SCCM 2007 R3
step by step
Hey Daniel,
thanks a lot. This saved me hours. In SCCM2012R2 it’s a one click thing to update the image with hotfixes and patches.
@wasif:
I did it in our old 2007R2 environment some years ago. It’s a pain! I used DISM to mount the wim and then inject the updates. it’s like:
DISM /Mount-Wim /WimFile:C:\whereveryourwimfileis.wim /index:1 /Mountdir:C:\Temp\Mount
then inject the updates/patches/whatever
DISM /image:C:\Temp\Mount /Add-Package /Packagepath:C:\whereveryourpatchesare\
then save it and unmount it
DISM /Unmount-Wim /Mountdir:C:\temp\mount /commit
DISM /Cleanup-Wim
Then you have to redistribute the wim and hope that it works
Hi Markus,
Offline servicing of patches is however not something I would recommend as there are some issues, i.e getting corrup WIMs. My recommendation would always be to rebuild your image with MDT 🙂
