iqvw64e.sys A driver cannot load on this device

Hello,

After latest Windows 11 update (KB4023057) I started getting this error message pop up on every restart. I'm aware that this is due to having memory integrity feature on. I tried updating the driver, but intel driver and support assist is saying that no drivers need update.

iqvw64e is a software component of Intel Network Adapter Diagnostic Driver. In the Microsoft support website, they suggest disabling this security feature which I don't want to do for obvious reasons.

Please help me fix this.

Thanks!

Daniel

    Dear Daniel,

    I understand that you care a lot about computer security, but don't worry, the memory integrity is more suitable for enterprise users and in view of the security requirements of users. It needs support of the hardware and the hardware driver compatibility, but individual users' devices, generally are not fully compatible.

    If this function is enabled, it may cause many personal software to fail to run properly. Therefore, it is not a system exception. As an individual user, you do not need to enable memory integrity.

    Best regards,

    Mitchell - | Microsoft community support expert from MSFT

    The correct answer here is to uninstall the intel network driver completely because it is not supported anymore.

    Support Information for Intel® PROSet and Intel® Advanced...

    Let Kernel isolation on. saying home users should not care about safety is just a stupid way of thinking. installing bad drivers is a way to spread malware with ease.

    Dear Mitchell,

    while I do understand the necessity for a "quick fix" to this problem, I do not think it is in the least acceptable that the user is nowadays advised to give up a security feature just because "he is a standard user". Especially considering that the driver in question is distributed by a trusted and not insignificant entity (INTEL) and it should be Microsoft's care to ensure that its partners release drivers in line with the latest technical requirements.

    This should be the "marked solution" to this thread.

    And I would also add a link to the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant (Intel® DSA) to easily install the latest official driver.

    Thank you BjornVermeulen for pointing out the support info from Intel.

    I found the solution to this problem. After digging for the source of this file, I came across this article. File.net description of iqvw64e.sys. According to the article, this driver can be removed by uninstalling "Intel(R) Network Connections". Sure enough, I went to Control Panel, uninstalled the recommended app, rebooted, and voila! No more error. As for the value of that application, I have no idea. I am however happy to be rid of this error.
