Use msinfo32 you can type it from the run command:
in the window select Software environment, then system drivers; it will tell you the path to the file your system is actively using:
wdc_sam WD SCSI Pass Thru driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\wdcsam64.sys Kernel Driver No Manual Stopped OK Normal No No
That is the typical information listed; since this driver is maintained by Western Digital and is incompatible with windows, Microsoft should not use this driver; then western digital would update it, one would think. Personally Windows 11 should just let you enable/disable the affecting driver right in the incompatible drivers security panel; and windows should carry any default drivers that disable important security features.
