Hi,
I want to avoid the unsigned driver dialog programmatically I know the
manual way of going in Driver Signing and changing it to ignore. I want to
do it programmatically. I found some entries in registry but that did not
worked too.like
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Driver Signing\ Policy
This gets updated too after changing from warn to ingonre. But if I change
manually only in registry to these entries then still it warns.There must
something else too in registry from which it reads current warning status.
Is there any specific entry that installer reads accordingly shows prompt
which get updated when we change from windows’ provided “driver signing”
from *warn to *ignore. Does anyone has any idea about this ?

Well, you could sign your drivers…
Otherwise, I don’t you believe that you can stop this warning, at least on later versions of the os.

Be aware that firms are suing companies that do this, I know of one large
firm in my area that got quite a nice payment (more than the cost of the
products they had bought from the idiots who did this) in an out of court
settlement because the company that did it realized they could not afford
the public trial and follow on suits.

Ok Thanks. Actually I saw a virtual audio driver XXX which does this for XP.
Its driver is not signed but still does not prompt warning too. But anyway,
I will do this by simplest way, by getting my driver signed rather than
doing any hook around it.
Thanks and Regards,

The fact that this tries to be resistant to programmatic tampering should perhaps be a hint that you should not be doing that.
Just do the right thing and get your drivers signed instead of trying to explicitly subvert the user’s choices, which is poor form.
