- Disable Microsoft Vulnerable Driver Blocklist

Let us talk about them in detail.
1] Disable Microsoft Vulnerable Driver Blocklist
Microsoft’s Driver tends to block apps that it thinks can harm your system. In this case, Ryzen Master is getting blocked because of the Windows Security system. We need to disable Microsoft Vulnerable Driver Blocklist to get the security down. Follow the steps given below to do the same.
- Open Registry Editor from the Start Menu.
- Now, go to the following location.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\CI\Config\
- Then right-click on Config and select New > DWORD (32-bit value).
- Name the newly created key VulnerableDriverBlocklistEnable.
- Double-click on it and set the Value data to 0.
- Click on OK.
Finally, restart the computer and see if the issue is resolved.
2] Disable Core Isolation temporarily
If you are not willing to make changes in the registry, we can disable Core Isolation from Windows Settings. When you enable Core Isolation, a VBS Environment is created, it conflicts with Ryzen Master and causes issues for the user. Remember that disabling the security feature will make the system vulnerable. Follow the steps mentioned below to disable Core Isolation.
- Hit Win + S, search “Core Isolation” and open the app.
- Go to Device Security.
- Turn off Memory Integrity.
You will have to restart to confirm your actions. Finally, check if the issue is resolved.
3] Reinstall Graphics Drivers
Ryzen Master will fail to initialize resources if the display driver is corrupted. We won’t get into why the driver is corrupted, but we sure will look for appropriate measures. So, in order to repair the corrupted driver, we need to reinstall it. To do the same, follow the steps mentioned below.
- Open Device Manager by Win + X > Device Manager.
- Expand the Display adapter, right-click on the display driver, and select Uninstall device.
- Now, click on Uninstall again to confirm your actions.
Note: Do keep in mind that after clicking on the Uninstall button, your screen will go black. That is a normal procedure and there is nothing to worry about. - Once the screen goes back to normal, restart your computer.
- Now that your computer started, open the Device Manager and check if the correct driver is installed.
- If the correct driver is not installed, right-click on the Display adapter and click on Scan for hardware changes.
In case Windows fails to install the right driver, download it from the manufacturer’s website and then install it.
4] Reinstall Ryzen Master
If nothing worked, your last resort is to reinstall Ryzen Master as is mentioned in the error message. Remember, Ryzen Master is an overclocking utility and is not necessary to have on your system. In order to uninstall Ryzen Master follow the steps mentioned below.

- Look for “Ryzen Master”.
- Windows 11: Click on the three vertical dots and select Uninstall.
