USB Device Requires Admin to install ONLY when Sophos is installed

I am using a Device Control Policy and Blocking All USB Removable storage  ’’’’EXCEPT  Integral  Encrypted  USB Flash Drive’’’’.. The USB Flash Drive loads All Ok if Admin, but if User plugs the device in,  there are a total of Four Windows Admin Requests  to get through before using the device. This does NOT happen if The Policy is NOT enabled.  To be Clear.. They are Windows Admin Requests and do not appear for Admins. I have tried all the Policy and Registry Edits. Anybody had this problem before?.. .  Using AV Version 9.5 and Console 4.51

  • we have recently upgraded to 9.7 & we have allowed certain Secure USB devices through are system, however when we turn on the device control all secure USB devices need admin rights to install software.

    If we turn the device control off all secure USB devices will pass through without any problems, we have looked & it seems to be a problem with all windows XP service pack 2. Is there a fix for this as we need to find a solution soon.
