#Disable windows 7 driver signature check install#

[updated commented that Windows6.0-KB941649-v2-圆4 also needs to be uninstalled. Violator posted that KB938194 also needs to be uninstalled, and he suggests running the following command as well: Bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON You can also use VBCDEDIT to edit Vista’s boot options, which are normally set using the bcdedit command. I was looking for a permanent solution and came across this guide that explains the bcdedit command will work if if you uninstall the patches from KB932596 and KB938979.

Sure, I could still access the Advanced Boot Options menu by pressing F8 during the boot process and selecting Disable Driver Signature Enforcement, but that just disables driver signing for the current boot only. These two patches broke the bcdedit command listed above. From an elevated command prompt I ran bcdedit /set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKSĪnd rebooted, and I was able to load the unsigned drivers with no problem.īut that was before KB932596 and KB938979 were released. It was easy to disable driver signing before two updates were released.

Boot session with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled in odrder to install driver without signature check. I’m all for increased security, until I run across a piece of hardware that does not have signed drivers. Starting from Vista/ Windows 7 all drivers must have verified by Microsoft digitally signed signature /certificate. A security feature of Windows Vista 64 bit version is that unsigned drivers will not load.
