==================
I guess “Hypervisor” will be the trend in the near future, so I’ll start uploading these things. But first, everyone needs to know a few things before using it.
This method will disable the following (credit to RessourectoR):
– Memory Integrity (HVCI): Runs checks to detect malicious or at least unexpected modifications of Windows kernel code and restricts suspicious kernel memory allocations.
– Credential Guard: Stores access credentials, such as passwords, authentication data, biometric data etc. in an isolated environment.
– Windows Hello: Allows you to log in with convenient methods like a short PIN, facial recognition or fingerprint scan…
– System Guard (Secure Launch): An advanced system hardening framework that protects the OS boot process and System Management Mode (SMM, commonly used by the BIOS to run hardware configuration software) from (arguably sophisticated) rootkits…
In general, from my personal perspective, I would offer the following suggestions (note: these are just my personal opinions):
– If your PC isn’t primarily used for work => you can try it.
– If your PC doesn’t contain any important data => you can try it.
– If your PC is only used for gaming => let’s go! 😀
– If you’re a coder and using this PC => don’t try this. My team tested it on about 15 different PCs, and 2 of them currently can’t launch or are experiencing errors when running some of our tools. This might be due to a conflict with something during the disabling process. I’ll try to find out the cause later.
– “Hypervisor” is currently only in the experimental stage, so if it doesn’t work for you, that’s normal. But most of the time it will work.
Hopefully, this method will be significantly improved in the future.
