Windows Defender Memory Integrity - incompatible drivers

Go to solution Solved by Kilrah,

You can use Driver Store Explorer to wipe old drivers:

If you enable the "OEM INF" column it'll show you the file name so you should be able to locate oem64.inf and remove it too.

Hi,

 

I want to enable the memory integrity feature of Windows Defender. For that, you need compatible drivers. I only have one which is preventing me from turning the feature on - ssudcdf.sys:

It's from 2014, so already not great. My biggest issue: I don't know what that driver is for. After a bit of googling, I found out that it's some form of mobile phone driver.

I had installed the Samsung phone driver because I own a Galaxy S10 - but I deinstalled that one, so it can't be the issue. 

Also, I can't find any device in the Device Manager which uses that driver. My S10 apparently uses a generic Microsoft driver.

 

My best guess is that it's from when I was flashing /e/ OS on my Galaxy S7 - because somewhere it also said that this driver is a "SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface Driver". In that case, I definitely don't need it anymore.

 

So my conclusion is that I don't need this driver. But I couldn't find out how to remove it safely without it appearing in the Device Manager.

 

Does someone know how I would go about doing that?

 

Thanks!

Use "show hidden devices" in device manager and remove the Samsung phone entries, ticking "Remove driver".

I don't have any phones listed in the Device Manager (hidden devices turned on) since I deinstalled the Samsung mobile phone driver.

Thanks for the tip, with the Driver Store Explorer I managed to delete that driver!
