How to disable Memory Integrity

Hello

I need to disable Memory Integrity on my Windows 11 but I failed to do so. Reason is, my HTV Vive Pro 2 bluetooth drivers are getting blocked when Memory Integrity is active. I am disabling it from Security > Core Isolation > Memory Integrity, and Windows asks me to restart, and after restart it gets enabled again. I also edited following registry entries.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\CredentialGuard > Enabled to 0

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity > Enabled to 0

If I disable Intel Virtualization Technology from BIOS, it gets disabled, but it is reducing my overall security and affects my Vmware app.

How can I disable it?

Driver name in question is btwusb.sys. I contacted HTC support but they are asking me to contact Windows for their insecure driver.

    Hello

    MemoryIntegrity folder wasn't there, so I created it and added "Enabled" DWORD with value 0, restarted computer. No change.

    I deactivated Virtualization-based security from group policy (Administrative Templates > System > Device Guard), executed gpupdate /force and restarted computer. No change.

    What else can I do?

    These steps should disable Memory Integrity on Windows 11 permanently:

    • Press the Windows key + R, type "regedit", navigate to the following path:

    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios

    -Look for the "MemoryIntegrity" folder. If it exists, double-click on it to open it.

    -Inside the MemoryIntegrity folder, you should see a DWORD value named "Enabled."

    -Double-click on the "Enabled" value and change its data from 1 to 0.

    -Close the Registry Editor and restart your computer.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Best regards,

    Mário
