Description
I see that there have been a new [INF AddFilter Directive](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/inf-addfilter-directive) available since Windows 1903. Still, none of the sample projects in this repo seem to use it. There's furthermore virtually no other samples available elsewhere online, which makes it challenging to learn how to use it.
Would it be possible for you to modernize one or more of the sample filter-driver projects to use the AddFilter directive?
Thanks in advance.
