Answer 1

Hi,

Thanks for the update on the issue.

If there is no disable option, try to uninstall the same and check if it helps.

If it doesn't work, try the following steps.

• Go to Start–>Search type in gpedit.msc
• Click the file to open the Local Group Policy Editor and show Windows who is in control!! You want to go here: Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->Device Installation. Click on the subfolder Device Installation Restrictions on the left and on the right side you will see the possible restrictions.
• Right Click on Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings and edit this option, set it on ENABLED.
• Reboot your PC.

Note: By doing so, you will stop the ability to install standard driver upon restart, open gpedit.msc again and revert the change so you will be able to install your driver.

Hope this information helps.
