By default, Windows 8 does not allow you to install drivers without digital signature, as this can lead to instability or breakage of the system.

After downloading, go to the "diagnostics", and select "Advanced Parameters" and "Download Options" in it. We click again "reload" and already before the next start, press the F7 button, which disables the driver signature check.

From the bottom left by clicking the line "Open the location of the file" and find the "Properties" item in the context menu. In the window that appears, go to the tab "Label". In the "Quick Challenge" line, we write a key or a combination of them, clicking which will cause the program.

Win 8 can be configured by editing the registry. It is done, as before, using the REGEDIT command. For example, you will speed up the launch of programs in the autoload. To do this, we find the path of the type "HKEY_CURRENT_USER \\ Software \\ Microsoft \\ Windows \\ CurrentVersion \\ Explorer" and create a SERIALIZE subsection with DWORD parameters, assign the name StartupDelayInmSec, write the value "0". We go to the reboot to use the changes.

The operating system has a built-in SmartScreen filter that refers to Microsoft data about each installed program. If it does not suit you, smart is easy to turn off. To do this, open the support center (Hotkes Win + I) via the control panel, the "System and Security" item, select "Change Win SmartScreen parameters". In the list of settings, we note "do nothing to disable". We return to the "Support Center" tab and turn off the notification that the computer is under threat (right to set the checkbox "Do not receive messages about SmartScreen").

As we see, Windows 8 has become much safer, at the same time deleting some familiar interface elements. However, most of them can be quickly returned to the places, and the rest replaced efficient and modern tools. A pleasant nuance is that the eight works quite quickly, it does not require the computer and the user impossible.
