HP 3D DriveGuard does not work.

[leftfield01]

Hello, I have an HP Pavilion 15 n027sl notebook I was upgrading about 3 years ago to Windows 10 Home 64Bit version

1511. Previously, I had Windows 8 64Bit. In September 2017, Windows Update updated the HP 3D DriveGuard software that returns the error reported in the attached file. I also tried installing sp71811.exe (Driver-Chipset Version: 6.0.28.1 Rev.A - Operating Systems: Windows 10 64Bit - Release Date: 29 Jul 2015 - File Name: sp71811.exe 32.1 MB) from the HP page of drivers for my notebook and I have installed it but the HP 3D DriveGuard software does not work by showing the same load error window at each boot.

Thank you.

Hi,

Open windows Control Panel, open Programs and Features, right click the entry for HP 3D DriveGuard and select Uninstall.

When this has completed, restart the notebook.

When windows has reloaded, download and install the version of HP 3D DriveGuard on the following link.
