For many users of Windows 7 test mode - a familiar theme.However, the question of why you need to transfer the system to the regime, few answers.
all started with a tightening of Microsoft's requirements for drivers that are installed on the device with Windows 7. Now all they have to be certified by Microsoft.Confirms a special digital signature.The system checks each driver to be installed prior to installing.If you decide to put new drivers, and the screen will display "Windows can not verify the publisher of this driver software", then your driver is not certified.Even then if you try to continue, but this option is present, the system still does not allow it to do so.The same situation occurs when you install some programs and utilities.This is where it comes to helping users test mode.When Windows 7 is valid in it, you can safely install unsigned drivers on your device, be it a computer or netbook.
What is a signed driver?
drivers are signed and unsigned.The difference is only in the presence of a digital signature.This is an electronic security mark that confirms that your existing driver - license, and has not been subjected to any changes.In the digital signature can be determined, and the publisher of the driver.If not, then install the available product can be risky, so in Windows 7 test mode for the installation of such drivers should be used in exceptional cases.
establish or install?
If you can not decide what an exceptional case, and what is not, worry not: such disputes are not so much.Before hastily system into test mode, learn more about the device drivers that you install.Of course, unlicensed software are not safe, and drivers without a digital signature is much more harmful to your computer.It is worth the risk to install unsigned driver only those devices that have a little bit outdated.For example, not all the old printers and scanners is now possible to find the driver license.But, nevertheless, we must somehow work with these devices.Here is the situation really be considered exceptional, so dear users of Windows 7, the test mode will save you in this case.
Turning
transition into test mode when you install some programs and utilities will be your consent - during the installation process, you may receive a window, where you need to give the green light to transfer the system to the appropriate mode.But in most cases it will have to include yourself.Make it almost as easy as a test mode and disable Windows 7. So, go to the "Start" menu, select the line "Run" and enter the following code: bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON.
Disable
After completing the installation of the drivers should remove the test mode Windows 7. For this there are two ways slightly different from each other.The first version resembles the inclusion of this regime.Come to the "Start" then "Run."Enter the following: bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF.The second method may be a little easier.The above text must be entered after pressing the keyboard shortcut "Win + R".Test mode is switched off.
Windows 7 test mode - not the casual, but still a necessary thing, especially immediately after the transition to Windows 7 with any other.Operating system changes, but the unit will remain the same.So do not be afraid in this case to use the test mode.But in other situations, it's still worth to contact a licensed driver.
Unless you want to configure your PC, please note that the system features a special solution that allows you to check for signatures on drivers.
