What are atksgt.sys and SSHDRV65.sys drivers?

[DadoPanda]

These two drivers are constantly being blocked from running. What are they? Are they even important? Can i just remove them or something?

They are copy-protection drivers installed with some games to prevent the game being copied. They are definitely not required for Windows to run and are not installed with a Windows 7 installation.

Thank you very much for your answer. If i may ask one more thing: is there a way to find out which game required these drivers and is there a special way to uninstall these drivers, i know nothing about uninstalling drivers...

I do not know how you can find out which games require those two files as I do not run any games on my PC.

Removing drivers is often possible by uninstalling them as you would uninstall an application using Control Panel > Programs & Features, so have a look in there. The filenames themselves will not be listed there, but will probably be part of a "package" with a different name. Uninstalling that package also removes those two sys files.

Failing that, just delete those two files (use search tool to find them).
