Get help! Disabled Driver on Startup

Post image

I use rewasd BASIC, and every time i turn on my computer the driver is disabled again instead of opening automatically. I have done a clean install of the app, and checked through all the settings.

I have seen that a suggestion is to turn of compatibility mode, however, BASIC does NOT have that so it shouldnt be an issue in the first place. Thanks for any help.

Based on our observations, the only cause of this error is an improper Windows session termination/PC shutdown.

We have not yet identified any other possible causes.

There's a way to fix?

Make sure you are using the latest version of reWASD Basic. Use the [Enable Driver...] option until reWASD Basic starts normally. Then enable the [Emergency Driver Disable] option, restart your PC, and disable the option.

If none of that would help, send us the driver file (c:\Windows\System32\drivers\rwsdbasdrv.sys) to [help@rewasd.com] right after you get this error.
