In this part of the video, the speaker addresses how to fix core isolation incompatible driver issues, particularly when enabling the memory integrity setting in Windows. Microsoft recommends uninstalling outdated drivers and updating to new ones to resolve this issue. If this doesn’t work, it’s suggested to remove the problematic driver altogether, although Microsoft advises caution. The speaker demonstrates the process by showing how to enable features like the Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Hypervisor Platform, and subsequently attempts to turn on core isolation. When encountering an incompatible driver issue, specifically with a Western Digital driver, the video advises updating or removing the outdated driver.

In this part of the video, the speaker addresses issues related to incompatible drivers and provides steps to resolve them. They suggest checking the manufacturer’s website for updated drivers, but if none are available, they discuss uninstalling the problematic driver. The process involves using the command `pnp util /enum drivers` to list current drivers and identify the offending one. The speaker demonstrates how to uninstall the driver using a command or through Device Manager by navigating to hidden devices, locating the driver (in this case related to Western Digital), and confirming its properties before uninstalling it. This procedure is recommended only if you understand the risks, such as the device potentially not functioning correctly post-uninstallation.

In this segment, the video explains how to remove an outdated driver from a device to enable memory integrity or core isolation on a computer. The process involves uninstalling the driver, which may prevent the feature from working. The video highlights that older devices often lack updated drivers, necessitating either removal or updating of the driver.
After removing the driver, the core isolation feature should work. For devices without updated drivers, simply removing the driver is necessary. The presenter also demonstrates navigating through ‘Apps and Features’ to uninstall specific applications.
Additionally, the video guides viewers to locate and delete drivers manually by accessing the system directory (`C:WindowsSystem32DriverStoreFileRepository`). If the driver is not related to Western Digital, users must take ownership of the file to remove it.
For less experienced users, the video suggests using the Driver Store Explorer tool to delete drivers more easily. The process is visually demonstrated but not completed in the video as the presenter has already removed their driver.

In this part of the video, the presenter demonstrates how to review and enable Windows Security features, specifically focusing on core isolation and memory integrity. After restarting the PC, the presenter navigates to the privacy and security settings to show that all security features, including secure boot and the security processor, are properly enabled with green checkmarks. The presenter explains that enabling these features significantly reduces malware risks, dismissing claims that they hinder PC performance on modern systems. The video concludes with a thank you message to the presenter’s YouTube members and an invitation for viewers to leave comments if the video was helpful.
