How to disable driver signatures on modern rigs with secure boot

[StefanG3D]

On older rigs with secure boot off we can use these commands:

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set testsigning ON
shutdown.exe /r /o

 

Nowadays most laptops insist on secure boot on to load Windows 10

If you want to install unsigned drivers occasionally use this method:

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
enable testsigning via enhanced start options as described at:

If you want to install unsigned drivers regularly use this method:

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit /set {globalsettings} advancedoptions true

usually these CMDs are best used on old machines that use legacy BIOS (non-UEFI) chips

older machines that do have UEFI but have pre-installed win8/8.1 have options to enable or disable secure boot in UEFI setup

most laptops with pre-installed win10 have no option to turn off secure boot
