iqvw64e.sys

Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

1. Does this error appear when you turn on Memory Integrity in the Windows Security settings?

This driver is usually related to Intel network drivers (Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O). Updating the Intel wireless or Ethernet driver from the PC manufacturer's website or Intel’s official site should fix it.

If you are still having issues, there are a few ways to uninstall iqvw64e.sys driver that interferes with Core Isolation:

Method 1.

1. Click the link below to download a small free utility that does not require installation.

1. Run Autoruns64 as Administrator.
2. Go to the Drivers tab.
3. Uninstall the iqvw64e.sys that are displayed as incompatible drivers in the Memory Integrity.
4. Restart your computer and turn ON core isolation.

Method 2. Use the Command Prompt method.

1. Open Command Prompt as Administrator. Execute the commands below.

pnputil /enum-drivers

(This command should display all the drivers). To uninstall a particular driver, run the command below.

pnputil /delete-driver oemXX.inf /FORCE

• Replace XX with the driver number.

For example, if your iqvw64e.sys driver is displayed as oem22.inf in the lists, you will have to type the command like this and click enter.

pnputil /delete-driver oem22.inf /FORCE

This will permanently delete the drivers from your computer.

Restart your computer and turn on Memory Integrity.

The error message you are encountering indicates that the driver iqvw64e.sys cannot be loaded due to security settings that are detecting it as a vulnerable driver. This is likely related to Microsoft's security measures to block potentially harmful drivers from loading on your system.

To resolve this issue, you may need to adjust your security settings. Here are some steps you can consider:

1. Check Driver Compatibility: Ensure that the driver is compatible with your version of Windows.
2. Update the Driver: Look for an updated version of the driver that is not flagged as vulnerable.
3. Adjust Security Settings: If you are using features like Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI) or Smart App Control, you may need to adjust these settings to allow the driver to load. However, be cautious as changing security settings can expose your system to risks.
4. Use Windows Security: You can manage driver block settings through the Windows Security app, where you can enable or disable the vulnerable driver blocklist.

If you continue to experience issues, consider reaching out to the driver manufacturer for further assistance or checking for any known issues with the driver in question.
