Hi, I am wondering how to disable this huge test mode watermark in windows 10. I have tried the normal fix, only to be met with this error. What can I do?
How to disable test mode in windows 10 when it is protected by secure boot policy?
I found these microsoft "solutions" to this same problem. But there are some who disable secure boot and will see the watermark pop back up on the screen a few hours later.
The exact same issue it seems:
Note that I disabled Secure Boot from UEFI by holding "shift" and clicking restarting the pc from the start menu. I went into Advanced Options and entered UEFI settings then navigated to the Secure Boot tab to uncheck the box that said Secure Boot was Enabled. Afterwards, I restarted my PC and successfully had these results in Command Prompt:
As you can see from my tabs, I been trying to fix this issue quite often. Keep in mind that I noticed that after I restart the PC, I won't get the Test Mode water mark for a few hours but it will always re-appear. So if you don't get a response from me in a few hours, then this method resolves the issue: disable secure boot,
SAVE THE SETTINGS WHEN PROMPTED,
then allow the pc to reset and run command prompt as admin,
then enter the bcdedit testisigning off code thing.
NOTE: In the image: i ENABLED & DISABLED integrity checks... i got no idea **** this does because I found conflicting solutions to the problem which we all share:
this guy says you need to ENABLE it:
so does this guy right? ENABLE it?
but then 45 minutes later I find a dude with the EXACT SAME ISSUE and he solved it by claiming you must DISABLE it. So I'm like ****?
Then there is THIS guy who says he tried to ENABLE the Integrity checks but later found that it did not solve the issue:
So best of luck to you all. I went with Disabling it. Microsoft has abandoned us. So please shoot me a message if you find more information on this solution. Like I said, if I am not back in 24 hours then that means I found the fix.
