Help! I’m getting a pop-up during the USB Descriptor Test

If you’re certifying a device on Windows 8 by using the Windows 8.1 HCK, you might get a security pop-up window. If you do, please click through the pop-up window by clicking Install this driver software anyway on the client machine. The test will continue, and the outcome of your test won’t be affected. If you don’t click through the pop-up window, the test might be cancelled and marked as failed. This pop-up window will be removed in the RTM version of the Windows 8.1 HCK.
