Hello ,
I need help. Whenever I wanted to install a new game, Vista tells me that there is a compatibility problem between him and StarForce protection driver. I found a solution from internet and I tried to apply. But by loading sfdrvup.zip of starforce.com, I can not read it, a window appears with the message "error in compressed folder is invalid." Is there among you a charitable soul who can help me a big thank you to everyone who read my message and who can help me
The procedure to do this is like
Here's how:
- Download the file by saving it in your folder "Download":
http://www.star-force.com/support/sfdrvup.zip- Right-click on sfdrvup.zip -> Extract All
- Right-click on sfdrvup.exe -> Run as administrator
- The update will begin.
- Restart the PC.
Thank you for your answer I did everything as you described me as. But if I right-click my file sfdrvup and run as administrator: a window appears that states "No installed protection drivers found to update". If you can help me thank you again for your answer
Then try using StarForce Drivers Removal
Quote:
When you use a software or game the system protected by copy-edited by the company StarForce, the latest drivers installed to protect the content against copying.
StarForce Drivers Removal is a tool which, as its name suggests, allows to eliminate any trace of the passage of the StarForce protection on your machine in order to avoid any conflict for no apparent reason.
How to remove all StarForce components from your PC:
Sometimes the un-installation utility of the protected application does not uninstall all StarForce drivers. The following procedure will ensure that all StarForce related components are completely removed from your system.
- Download the StarForce Removal Tool as a ZIP archive.
- Extract and store sfdrvrem.exe anywhere on your hard disk.
- Run sfdrvrem.exe.
- You restart the PC.
If the protected application requires a StarForce driver, this driver will be re-installed as soon as you launch the application again. For further help, please contact the helpdesk of the application publisher.

StarForce constantly improves their drivers to keep them compatible with the latest versions of Windows operating systems.Quote:
