Driver amsdk.sys is being blocked from loading

Question

After a recent Windows update, I now get an error message:

A driver cannot load on this device

Driver: amsdk.sys

A security setting is detecting this as a vulnerable driver and blocking it form loading.

You'll need to adjust yur settings to load this driver.

Answer 1

I tried Intel and AMD apps for drivers update and no luck. these apps updates only the drivers dedicated to their hardware, they are not tied up with security or something like this. even more - I do not have amd hardware so nothing to update.
its a pity that Microsoft knows the issues and never responses!!!

Answer 2

It doesn't day AMD it is AMSDK.SYS the Driver for this device is not able to to load because it is blocked from loading. Many people are having this issue in Windows11. I have not seen a solution that has worked. Intel 8core i7 16Gb. If know the solution, please share.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 3

I have the same problem. Memory integrity is on. Turning it off is a big deal. I uninstalled SuperAntispyware (SAS) thinking that was the problem but it wasn't. So I just disabled the message waiting for MS to fix this problem. I never had the software associated with this driver on my computer. The other two security softwares on my system is McAfee Total protection running real time and Malwarebytes free version not real time only on demand. Seems I'm not the only one this problem.

Answer 4

Yes , This is the response I am getting on my laptop..

Answer 5

HAPPENED AFTER I UPGRADED TO WINDOWS 11
