Win7 system disables the driver to force the signature method

Windows7 system requires digital signature for the use of the driver, otherwise it can not be used normally, but we sometimes need to use a driver without digital signature, what should we do? How to disable driver signature enforcement?

1. How to disable driver signing for Windows 7 system

Start - Run (enter gpedit.msc) - OK or Enter. Open the local Group Policy Editor;

2, in the open local Group Policy Editor window, we found: User Configuration - Administrative Template;

3, in management Found in the template expansion item: system and expand;

4, in the system expansion item, we found: driver installation, and left click: driver installation;

5. In the right window corresponding to the driver installation, we find: the code signature of the device driver, and double-click it: device-driven code signature;

6, in the open Device-driven code signing window, we choose: Enabled, in the drop-down box of options, there are: warning, block, ignore.

Warning: Notify users of files that are not digitally signed and let the user decide whether to stop or continue the installation and whether to allow installation of files that are not digitally signed.

Block: The command system refuses to install files that are not digitally signed.

Ignore: The command system continues to install (including installing files that are not digitally signed).

If we want to install a driver file that is not digitally signed, you can choose: ignore, then click: OK;

7, after the driver installation is complete, it is recommended to set it as Ignored items are then set to warnings (the default setting) to enhance the security of the system.

8, the above method is a way to disable the driver signature forcing in Windows7 system. There are other methods, such as pressing F8 to enter safe mode at boot, you can also disable driver signature forcing. I won’t go into details here.
