Exetools - Disable PatchGuard & Driver Signing

What Fyyre said was that Fyyre is no longer using "new" Microsoft products, so there is no method for Fyyre to develop the product for use on Windows 8.

Someone using Windows 8 will have to develop it for the group.

Be more kind here mate.
Watch your language.
This kind of attitude will get you nowhere.

Already I did this, during RC0 of Windows 8.

Today mostly I working with Linux. My own personal need and interest is no longer, making this a project now for someone else.

What a pity!

I change my mind; if someone can provide me with a link to Windows 8 x64 ntoskrnl.exe -- I will add support of Win 8 to Disable PG/DS, when free time permits.

Here is the latest version of the Windows 8 x64 ntoskrnl.exe:

Thank you for your efforts, Fyyre. ;)

You need select file osloader.efi to patch manually. Tested on Win7 SP1 17514

Hi Gelip!

Did this work for you? If so -- wonderful! =)

I will note:

hFiref0x and I created UPGDSED based on my "disable PG/DS" idea and research.

I'm not sure if you tried using it... it should still work fine, although the project is no longer updated.

Perhaps someone released a more modern way to disable DSE and PatchGuard? However I am unfamiliar with what alternatives are.

Be well!

Yes, but Win7 must be activate or work only 30 day from fresh install OS. I test driver signing BeepXP:

Normal boot - digital signature error (service beepxp not running)

PatchGuard Disabled v3 - service beepxp running, driver works :):

How test PatchGuard?
