I am attempting to write a KMDF driver using visual studio 2015. When I try to deploy the driver and start the debugger everything seems to work: visual studio is able to build the solution and deploy it to the target computer (wich is a virtual machine), but after the deployment of the files, it seems to get stuck: I can't pause the debugger and execute the debugger's commands.
My Question: How do I get the debugger to break/pause?
What I have tried:
I have tried connecting to the target computer both with the network and with pipes, but neither seems to change anything.
I have tried setting the test certificate to "WDKTestCert".
I have tried adding a package project to the solution.
Additional Information:
My configuration of the project is the exact same as shown on MSDN here.
My host computer and target computer are both running windows 8.1 64 bit.
The target computer is a VMWare virtual machine.
I am using visual studio 2015 Version 14.0.25123.00 Update 2.
I am using WDK 10.
The Debugger's Log:
Using NET for debugging
Opened WinSock 2.0

After this point it seems like nothing happens.
Any help would be appreciated.
