    Open-file-security-warning


    Re-installed W7 OS
    Applied all driver updates to ASUS MB ..
    One of these throws up a window on every boot up ...

    "Open-File Security warning"
    Then a normal path and option to run or cancel ...

    Not sure exactly which file .. but path commence with :
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver\application\iusb3mon.exe

    I have seen the tutorial on chnaging open file security settings .... do I need to do this as it will impact system wide security ... only want to stop it for this one file ?

    Or do I just need to 'untick' the always ask option

    screen grab attached:

    Hello Sargan,

    No worries. Unblocking that file to stop the "Open File - Security Warning" will only affect that specific file, and nothing else.

    Open File - Security Warning : Unblock File

    Hope this helps, :)
