These steps need to be followed when installing Scope v5.1 onto Windows 8.  It is the v5.1 installer that installs the driver.  Do not install the driver via windows.

Here are the usual cut-n-paste directions I usually send out.  The second method in the link is my preference over the command prompt method but both work equally.  Remember, disable driver signing THEN run the Scope installer.  If you already have Scope installed, don't worry.  Just rerun the installer.

You can permanently enable Test Mode by opening an Elevated Command Prompt and typing the following commands, then rebooting:

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON

Hit enter after each command to open an elevated command prompt, use these instructions:

To turn it off again, use these commands:

bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF

Here is a second way to enter test mode:
