Hi Buzz, as @dorsetknob said, there's already multiple threads for this, so I'm closing this one down.

There's a temporary solution another member came up with if you want to get it working (here), otherwise you'll just need to be patient until the author comes out with a new version.

From the author:

Thanks for the reminder. Looks like the Obsidian version expires on November 1. There should be an updated version ready in the next couple of weeks.

ThrottleStop uses a pretty simple expiry date check. If a version ever expires, just set your system date back a month, start ThrottleStop and then fix your date. Bit of a hassle but not the end of the world.

It looks like Microsoft changed their mind. As of the recent Windows 10 builds, the WinRing0 driver is no longer being blocked. I think they were just testing the waters to see if anyone still needs that driver.


Regards
