You're very welcome.

 

HP removed the icon from the taskbar.

 

There were lots of compatibility issues with W10, and many different versions of the 3D driveguard driver have been released.

 

I gave you the last one that actually had some software left to it. 

 

The latest driver, which I didn't give you, only installs the hardware.

 

There should be a 3D Driveguard app in the Windows Control Panel.

 

If you cannot easily find it, change the view in the control panel to Large Icons.

 

Then the apps are in alphabetical order.

 

The actual device is found in the device manager under the System Devices category.

 

It will be labeled HP Mobile Data Protection Sensor, and the status should report 'This device is working properly.'

Thank you again sir for trying to help me out in another situation lol.

The link to the driver that you provided got installed successfully. But still i am unable to locate its icon on the task bar or location of its application software so that i can look up to the status of 3d drive gaurd utility.  It neither shows up in the control panel nor via the search option next to the windows icon in the windows 10.

You can send me the latest driver. I don't mind if the latest one works with hardware only. It should just work. Btw the driver you provided still does'nt show any software in control panel.

 

Thank you !!
