I have yearly subscriptions for SpyShelter Silent Anti KeyLogger and have been running version 12.9 on my computer (Windows 10) and laptop (Windows 11) without any issues for a long time.
However, today the laptop was updated to Windows 11 24H2 and ever since then I cannot get SpyShelter to work. Instead on startup it gives an error “Cannot connect to driver” and no combination of changing settings, restarting, etc. fixes it.
This was working fine before the update so I’m not sure what’s happening now. Could anyone please advise on how to fix this?
Unfortunately it won’t be possible to revert the update as I need to be on the latest version now. So I am keen to see what response you get on how to fix this.
Also, I did look at the latest SpyShelter some time ago but my understanding was it didn’t have the anti-keylogger hence why I have been sticking with the SpyShelter Silent Anti Keylogger version of your software. However, if this has changed then please let me know because I would be happy to upgrade to the newer version if it works and can do this now?
Unfortunately Windows 11 makes anti-keylogging difficult or impossible for us to implement because of changes Microsoft made to the OS. We will keep trying to bring back this feature in a way where it can be stable, dependable, and not constantly disabled by Windows updates and other future OS changes.
I will keep a lookout on Microsoft’s response. Hopefully they will offer some solution to the issue.
Ahh I see. That’s unfortunate if Microsoft is doing that If I read between the lines, would I be correct in saying that if Microsoft doesn’t have a good solution then I may no longer be able to run this on my Windows 11 computer?
Anyways, by any chance have you received a response from Microsoft yet?
I think you are confusing two different products. I am using SpyShelter Silent Anti Keylogger v12.9, not SpyShelter with all the extra bells and whistles.
The reason I am using this specific version is specifically for the anti-keylogger functionality (and I should mention that although they have not updated this product for a few years now, I am still a paid customer and continue to pay a yearly fee to access this software). Unfortunately, the latest version of the main SpyShelter program that you are referring to does not include the anti-keylogger functionality as far as I’m aware, and thus would not be suitable for my purposes.
Hence, I am stuck on the SpyShelter Silent Anti-Keylogger version simply because it is the only one that has the functionality that I need, which thankfully is still working on Windows 10, but unfortunately has stopped working on Windows 11 after the latest update
