#### Installation on Windows 11

The installation methods above will not work on Windows 11, as the installation batch file relies on `devcon-x64`, which is not compatible with Windows 11. You can install unsigned drivers for Windows 11 with an alternative method, leveraging devcon's successor, `pnputil` and `bcdedit` to put Windows 11 in Test Mode. To install Scream for Windows 11:

1. Ensure that Secure Boot is not enabled.
2. Enable Test Mode: Open an administrator command prompt, and issue `bcdedit /set testsigning on`. Reboot your machine, and ensure you see "Test Mode" on the bottom-right corner of your wallpaper.
3. Install the driver: Open an administrator command prompt, and navigate your terminal to `<scream folder>/Install/driver/<architecture>/`. Then, issue: `pnputil /add-driver .\Scream.inf /install`.
4. Turn Off Test Signing: From an administrator command prompt, issue `bcdedit /set testsigning off`. Then, restart your computer. Ensure that Test Mode is now disabled by ensuring there is no message of "Test Mode" present on the bottom-right corner of your wallpaper. You should now see the Scream audio device in your audio devices, and can proceed with client setup.
