I created a security policy to prevent the system device from being reinstalled using it's device ID (ACPI\ACPI0003\2&DABA3FF&2), but it somehow circumvented the policy and reinstalled itself.

the Data Protection Sensor reinstalls itself. I've uninstalled multiple times, rebooting in safe mode, but even in safe mode.

I disabled a service called 'HP Service" thinking that may be triggering the reinstall, but each time I reboot, the service has changed itself to "Automatic" instead of "Disabled". I've uninstall the HP 3D Driveguard software with CCleaner, hoping that would get rid of loose ends, registry keys, etc., but although Driveguard did not come back, the Data Protection Sensor did.
UNINSTALL HP MOBILE DATA PROTECTION SENSOR WINDOWS 10 DRIVER
I've uninstalled the HP Mobile Data Protection Sensor in Device Manager (checking the box Delete the Driver Software for this Device), but upon reboot it loads again. It is the hpdskflt.sys file that is loaded onto each disk drive (visible in Drive Details in Device Manager) that is blocking the larger drives to be properly recognized. The HP Mobile Data Protection Sensor entry in Device Manager -> System Devices has five associated files:Ĭ:\Windows\System32\drivers\accelerometer.sys I've uninstalled Data Protection Sensor and when I reboot the computer, the larger drives are detected and they work, but around 90 seconds later Data Protection Sensor reinstalls itself and kicks the larger hard drives out. The combination of HP 3D Driveguard (software) and HP Mobile Data Protection Sensor (system device) are preventing me from using newer, larger (1TB and 2TB) external USB hard drives.
