I had forgotten about this issue and should've included info about it in the README. Unpatched Windows 7 systems require the hotfix at Microsoft Security Advisory 3033929 in order to verify SHA-2 (SHA256) digital signatures. Current driver signing certificates can only sign using SHA256 so we unfortunately can't sign with SHA-1 to be backwards compatible. More details about Microsoft's deprecation of SHA-1 can be found at Windows Enforcement of Authenticode Code Signing and Timestamping.

If this fix works for you let me know so I can move to close the issue by updating the project README and making that 577 dialog box clearer. Thank you for the bug report, we appreciate it!

I'm having a problem finding the file to download from MS. The site link
doesn't download the specific OS file. Feel free to close the issue until I
can get the correct file from MS.

Thanks
Robert

The links to the patches should be at the above security advisory link under the "Affected Software" section. If you're able to apply the patch and still have problems, don't hesitate to open another issue and we'll get it figured out. Thanks Robert!
