我在使用PackageWriter.AddDriver方法之前遇到过这个错误。我发现这个异常有一个InnerException属性，暗示这个方法需要读取一个名为"WindowsProtectedFiles.xml"的文件。它应该包含在你的HCK Studio文件夹中的
，例如"C：\Program Files（x86）\Windows Kits \8.1 \ Hardware Certification Kit \ Studio"。 

I had met this error before while using the PackageWriter.AddDriver method. And I found that this exception has an InnerException property that imply this method need to read a file named "WindowsProtectedFiles.xml" which supposed to be include in your HCK Studio folder like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Hardware Certification Kit\Studio". 

因此解决方案是将此"WindowsProtectedFiles.xml"文件复制到您的exe所在的文件夹中。

So the solution is copy this "WindowsProtectedFiles.xml" file to the folder that your exe located.
