    WUDFRd Driver Failed to Load

    Usually this is a Kernel-Pnp message telling you that WUDFRd failed to load a device.
    ex:
    The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device USB\VID_138A&PID_003D
    or
    The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device ACPI\HPQ6000\3&b1bfb68&0.

    so first thing is to see what device it could not load.

    Full event error: The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device {C5A047D8-CB5B-40E9-B9E3-316AB06B5A18}\WirelessKeyboardFilter`

    Driver environment:
    Windows 10 x64 desktop
    I have a wireless Microsoft mouse
    I do not have a Microsoft wireless keyboard
    I have the associated transceiver that should work for both (if installed)

    This problem started when my Microsoft wireless mouse driver was updated to version 1.0.102.0 (dated 3/16/2016).
    This driver update also appears to be responsible for a few other device errors as well:

    I believe this new driver assumes you have a wireless keyboard (without checking) and just tries to load a driver for it.

    My temporary fix is/was to rollback the driver to the previous Microsoft version 10.0.10586.0 (dated 6/21/2006):

    Anyone else run across this condition or have a known solution using the latest driver?

    Thanks,

    PC Crash , Error "The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device"

    For the last 2 weeks my PC has been randomly crashing/Blue Screen/restarting , it does not have a specific task or event that triggers it , my PC can be just sitting , or i can be on the Internet , or playing a game (FarCry 3 for example*single player*)
    and it just goes to a blue screen saying it had a issue , after its back up and running i go to the Event Viewer and find 3-4 errors all saying the same thing "The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device" (i will list the exact error below)

    I have not changed anything physical on my PC , the ONLY items that have changed is the latest Windows Updates (which i think caused this but i don't know which one) and a Video Driver update which i reverted back to the old one and the crash still happens
    , so that obviously was not the issue , i read some posts about setting "Windows Driver Foundation" to "Automatic" , that did not fix the issue , the PC is crashing 3-5 times a week , sometimes in a row , but at different times of day/night , i have done
    System Scans , which of course say nothing is wrong , and i have searched for this issue , and seen plenty of posts of "similar" errors , but not the exact error i am having (random crash , as most seem to be a booting error , this gives no error when booting
    nor at any other time , just the random Blue Screen , and a restart , then nothing about it crashing , unless i search the Event Viewer myself to find the cause)

    This is the error , it appears about 4 times for each crash , the Event ID is
    219 every time and the Task Category is
    212
    every time and the Level is Warning , if that makes any difference

    The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device SWD\WPDBUSENUM\_??_USBSTOR#Disk&Ven_Generic-&Prod_USB3.0_CRW-CF#MD&Rev_1.00#201601060924&0#{53f56307-b6bf-11d0-94f2-00a0c91efb8b}.

    Any ideas ??? , this is a Win 7 Pro Upgrade to Win 10 Pro (64 bit) , its been working fine for at least 6 months (which is when i upgraded the hard drive to 2tb from 1tb)

    Specs are basically I-5 4440 @ 3.10GHz , 12gb ram ,2gb Nvidea GTX750TI video card

    Any actual solution to this issue would be appreciated , as mentioned i have done pretty much all the Windows Scans and come up with nothing that resolves this , and anything i found suggested for similar issues also failed to help .... Thanks .... Jim
