Uuh, no - please. Keep this open. I'd really like to figure out what's going on here. The only things SDS installs are `drvmgt.dll` and `SafeDiscShim.sdb`. This one in turn...

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/develop/smart-app-control/overview I see. Though maybe this could still be considered a bug, in the sense that the super proper way to fix this would be code signing. EDIT: I'm assuming...

Mhh, that's not it as it complains about secdrv.sys - and it is dated to five days ago (around the time you first closed this issue). I would hope you...

That's the successful application of the sdb fix. I was instead more interested into some kind of log that explicitly told you "sorry but we couldn't load this library" or...

Uh... It actually just seems like installer.exe calls drvmgt.dll and then crashes. Plain and simple. In this sense it doesn't seem like having anything to do with code signing. EDIT:...

Yes, I know.. I'm saying that you try the individual shims that are forced with the win98 compatibility mode, so that we can see which of the many ones fix...

So, just to be clear.. if you enable all the other 75 shims simultaneously, nothing really change much - but with that single one then you see the difference?

I meant, the other 75 shims that makes the win98 compatibility mode (in my screenshot).

Did you remember to delete drvmgt.dll?

In https://github.com/RibShark/SafeDiscShim/issues/24 we figured W11 should have smart app control disabled. Can you try that?
