A comprehensive Windows kernel driver analysis and management tool written in Rust. Combines real-time driver enumeration, digital signature verification, service control, and multi-format exports into a single lightweight (~4 MB) native binary with both GUI and CLI interfaces.

• Enumerate all loaded kernel drivers via PSAPI and NtQuerySystemInformation
• 16-column sortable table: name, address, size, version, company, type, path, service name, signature status, and more
• Real digital signature verification using WinVerifyTrust and CryptCATAdmin (Authenticode + WHQL catalog, SHA256)
• File metadata extraction: version info, dates, attributes

• Register, start, stop, and unregister drivers through the Windows Service Control Manager
• Configurable start type (Boot, System, Automatic, Demand, Disabled) and driver type
• UAC elevation via ShellExecuteW — no temp files written to disk
• Real-time service status queries

• Dark-themed immediate-mode UI (egui/eframe)
• Multi-selection with Ctrl+Click, Shift+Click, and keyboard range selection
• Alt+key menu mnemonics, context menus, and full keyboard navigation
• Search and filter with Microsoft vs. non-Microsoft driver toggling
• Toolbar with prominent action buttons for driver operations

• Export to CSV, JSON, HTML, and plain text (all or selected drivers)
• Save driver snapshots and compare against live state or previous baselines
• HTML diff reports showing added/removed drivers

• 14 commands: list, info, load, unload, start, stop, register, unregister, verify-signature, export, batch, snapshot, compare

cargo build --release

Requires Windows and a Rust toolchain with the x86_64-pc-windows-msvc target.
