Examples
Example 1
This example first uses the Get-CMDriverPackage cmdlet to get an object for the package of Surface 4 drivers. It saves this object in the $pkgDriver variable. The next step creates an object for the Apply Driver Package step, getting the ID from the $pkgDriver object.
It then gets a task sequence object, and adds this new step to the task sequence at index 11.
This parameter is deprecated, it only applies to pre-Windows Vista OS versions.
