I'm glad you got it working. :)
As for a fix, I have a temporary one that I use. I made two batch files that I use to start and stop the secdrv service. That way I can run my games and then deactivate the secdrv service afterward.
To make them, open Notepad, and paste the following code inside:
Then save the file as "Start Secdrv.bat". The "bat" extension is very important.Code:start cmd.exe /c "sc config secdrv start=demand" start cmd.exe /c "sc start secdrv"
Then clear notepad out so it's blank again, or make a new document and paste in the following code:
Save that file as "Stop Secdrv.bat"Code:start cmd.exe /c "sc stop secdrv" start cmd.exe /c "sc config secdrv start=disabled"
Close Notepad.
Then, when you want to use the affected software, run the "Start Secdrv" batch file, then run your software. When you're finished with the software and close the program, run the "Stop Secdrv" batch file.
That way you can still use the program, and security is preserved for normal computer use. The only time it is "un-secure" is when you're actually playing the game or using the affected software.
I have both batch files on my desktop for ease of use. It's two extra steps to play my favorite game, but until there's another fix, it works for me.
