I have installed Adguard to perform a check.


Please download Autoruns from the following URL: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902

After it's completed downloading, extract the files to your Desktop.


After extraction is complete, ope Autoruns.exe. Accept the license agreement which will be displayed. Afterwards, you should see a window like the following:


[SPOILER="SCREENSHOT"]


There will be a difference in the entries between our systems*


[/SPOILER]


Use the filter at the top and search for: adgnetworkwfpdrv


Once you've found it, right click > Delete


[SPOILER="SCREENSHOT"]

 

[/SPOILER]


Accept the confirmation for this action. The entry will be removed, it should no longer attempt to startup at boot time.


Please can you go to the following path: c:\windows\system32\drivers\adgnetworkwfpdrv.sys


Delete that driver (*.sys file) if it exists. DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING ELSE.


Then check if the issue has been fixed (Event Viewer driver error).
