I had to access with remote controll because I couldn't move my mouse/keyboard (directly connected to the computer)...

Steps to reproduce

Follow the install setup
Run bcdedit.exe /set testsigning off
Restart the PC

Solved after uninstalling the program; I assume re-enabling testsigning will also work.

Obviously it cannot work if test signing is disabled. You can disable it for some reasons without uninstalling usbip. It will work if enable test signing again.

it cannot work if test signing is disabled

Special emphasis on the "directly connected to the computer". By disabling that, it almost caused my computer to brick. None of the (directed) connected USBs were recognised, so I couldn't login.

I think this part is worth mentioning, at least...

Disable Windows Test Signing Mode without removing USB/IP

usbip2_filter driver must be disabled, otherwise all USB controller will not work

What is wrong? Everything is described.

I updated README to emphasize do not set testsigning off when USBip is installed.
