ERROR_FLT_DO_NOT_ATTACH error code

I’m repeatedly seeing the error ERROR_FLT_DO_NOT_ATTACH when trying to attach my minifilter to one specific volume on one specific machine.

I can’t seem to find an information on this error anywhere (IFS Kit docs, OSR archives or Google).

The comment in fltwinerror.h says:

// Do not attach the filter to the volume at this time.

This sounds like a temporary condition, but the call fails every time. Has anyone else out there seen this?

Thanks,
Derek

I’m not close to my docset, but ISTR that this is what refusal to attach by
your minifilter turns into. Are you being called at your attach point ? And
do you have enough instances in the registry?

That was it. I had an error in my instance setup routine. I was returning STATUS_FLT_DO_NOT_ATTACH for a case that was not a problem.
Thanks,
