    Can anyone brave test it with safe mode? For me it brakes boot sequence and i need to fix it with USB repair, think this migration can brake boot in some cases as i enable it via vivetool and not as reg entry in policieso_O When it works ok try DDU to get into safe mode and see, as i got this bug triggered when i try to cleanup my display drivers via DDU(before new nvme driver all works perfect and can say it 100% as i test new drivers alot)

    You can delete the Policies CFR registry key or the delete [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\FeatureManagement\Overrides\8] used by the Vivetool default to undo the changes.

    This is the risk of enabling experimental features.

    what cpu ?
    gains should be with "slow" cpu because native driver bypasses scsi stack

    question at everyone..
    i used this to activate it from deskmodder (it works)
    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Policies\Microsoft\FeatureManagement\Overrides]
    "735209102"=dword:00000001
    "1853569164"=dword:00000001
    "156965516"=dword:00000001
    is there something important missing ?

    also please can someone show me how an "disable it" regfile would look of that please ? (to have it saved when i need to disable it in the future maybe)

    For me its not worth the problem it generates with safe mode for now, think i wait for proper Client version.

    Is there a way to activate this on 26h1? I've tried all the keys and nothing seems to work. Thanks.

    So the question is, where to get microsoft nvme driver? It is not listed.

    Use the one from Microsoft; the drivers from Samsung were generally problematic.

    I have only disk.sys available, and according to deskmodder, it should be nvmedisk.sys

    Which driver did you update to a Samsung driver?
    Samsung has never built or offered a disk drive driver. Samsung's NVMe driver is only usable by an NVMe Storage Controller.
