Recently Microsoft has added official list features that have deprecated or which is no longer being developed for the Windows 10 and 11 operating systems. This time the feature that is being turned off is the Driver Verifier GUI and will reportedly be removed in the next generation of Windows release.
The Verifier GUI driver, verifiergui.exe, is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Windows. You can use the Verifier Command Line (verifier.exe) instead of the Driver Verifier GUI.
So what is the Windows Driver Verifier GUI? So, Driver Verifier is a Windows component for drivers stress-testingwhere this section has been installed in the operating system and users can search for it on system32 folder.
However, keep in mind that the Driver Verifier GUI and the Driver Verifier itself are not the same thing, as the name suggests, the GUI (Graphic User Interface) provides an easier method for using this tool, and with the GUI version turned off, Microsoft recommends using the Verifier Command Line.
Driver Verifier monitors Windows kernel-mode drivers and graphics drivers to detect illegal function calls or actions that might corrupt the system. Driver Verifier can subject Windows drivers to a variety of stresses and tests to find improper behavior. You can configure which tests to run, which allows you to put a driver through heavy stress loads or through more streamlined testing. You can also run Driver Verifier on multiple drivers simultaneously, or on one driver at a time.
In general, users probably rarely use this tool, and only expert Windows users work with this tool. So even though the GUI version has been killed off and will no longer be available in future releases of Windows, it shouldn't be a problem as it won't affect regular general users.
