Windows 7: Installing an unsigned driver





Issue


Windows7 natively blocks unsigned drivers, preventing the installation of these drivers, making the device you want to install useless

We must temporarily disable the signature verification pilots.

Solution


Disable signature verification of drivers
  • Start Menu /Run, and type the following command:



bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON 
  • In the case that the Run command is unavailable in start menu, please refer to this FAQ:

  • Restart the PC and install the unsigned driver.
  • Note that it is highly recommended to enable the signature verification of drivers.
  • Start Menu /Run, and type the following command:



bcdedit /set nointegritychecks OFF
    • Restart your PC.
