Untrusted Publisher in Windows 10

After upgrading to Windows 10 Pro on my HP laptop I cannot install software for my fingerprint reader because the publisher, HP, is untrusted.

I have tried allowing sideloading apps, turning off Windows Smart Screen and changing the User Account Control settings to no avail.

Disabling Windows Smart Screen did bring up a different error window, but with basically the same message: Untrusted Publisher.

The only place I could find where untrusted publishers are located was through the old Internet Explorer and there are none listed.

Can anyone tell me where untrusted publishers are kept in Windows 10? Or how I can add HP as a trusted publisher?

• Press Windows X, then select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Press Shift + right-click on the program you want to unblock.
• Click Copy as path, then paste in Command Prompt.
• Hit Enter.

Blocked Publisher doesn't show up in Untrusted Publishers - how can I unblock the publisher?

I've already seen the following Post:

Hi samuel,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

I understand the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely assist you.

To unblock a software publisher try the below steps:

• 
  Open Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
  
• 
  Go to the Content tab, Look under the Certificates section.
  
• 
  Click on Publishers button.
  
• 
  Select the Untrusted Publishers tab.
  
  • Select the Publisher you wish to unblock and click the Remove button.

This post does not solve my problem with a Blocked publisher, because When I check the "Untrusted Publisher's tab in Internet Explorer. there are no entries to remove.

Any other way to resolve this?
