Massive compatibility problem with Microsoft Windows Device Guard Memory integrity

Dear community,

 

we have just encountered a massive problem with the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App and Windows Device Guard, Memory integrity to be more specific.

 

After enabling Memory integrity we had a few devices running into a blank/black boot screen and beeing stuck. It was possible to launch to safe mode but never to boot in normal mode. After a lot of hours invested we finally figured out what all devices had in common -> Creative Cloud Desktop App.

A few more hours later we were able to confirm, that CC App had a problem with Memory integrity or vice versa, if you like.

 

CC App comes with a driver "PX Engine Device Driver for 64-bit Windows" by "Rovi Corporation" that get's blocked by Windows' Memory integrity. You do receive a notivication when installing CC after Memory integrity had been enabled, also you can't enable Memory integrity if CC is already installed.

If you enable Memory integrity via GPO, though, you don't get any warning but rather affected computer will not boot up anymore. THANK YOU Microsoft for that...

 

Nevertheless, we would really like to have both. Does anybody have a fix for this problem?

 

Kind regards


Seb

Hi @Seb-needs-help , did you install any other Adobe apps in addition to the Creative Cloud desktop app? "PX Engine Device Driver for 64-bit Windows" is not a driver that is needed for the Creative Cloud desktop app however since it also installs other Adobe apps, it's likely that another app has a dependency.

Hi Kalvyn, we do not have anything else installed. Mentioned driver is included in the enterprise installer from the admin center.I have neither selected any plugin to be installed. Was not able to try the "public" installer yet, I am just not sure if it's suitable for SCCM (unattended parameters)?
