Why am I getting a Driver Signing error when installing my UAD drivers?

This is a known issue that Universal Audio is currently tracking and working to resolve. The UAD v9 drivers are signed for Windows 10 but they still show up as unsigned on some systems (but not all). Until UA can fix this in a future update, the workaround will disable Driver Signature Enforcement on these affected systems. Directions are below:
• Click the Start menu and select Settings.
• Click Update and Security.
• Click on Recovery.
• Click Restart now under Advanced Startup.
• Click Troubleshoot.
• Click Advanced options.
• Click Startup Settings.
• Click on Restart.
• On the Startup Settings screen press 7 or F7 to disable driver signature enforcement.
Your computer will restart and Windows 10 will no longer block the UAD drivers from loading. Note that if you reboot your computer Driver Signature Enforcement will be re-enabled, so this procedure needs to be repeated with every boot.
