Does anyone understand what a channel file is? Some sort of patch/dll that a driver loads?



It's a binary format specific to Crowdstrike for delivering updates. It's not a DLL or a plain patch, it's their own file format. And they have a lot of different things in there (config, regularly updated data, instructions to download the next driver version, etc etc)
