MagicAAP (Community) driver⚓︎
Failure
Starting with the April 2026 security update, Windows blocks all drivers that are not signed by Microsoft. If you have already updated your Windows, please use MagicAAP (Official).
Info
Requires MagicPods version 2.0.72.0 and above. Please don’t forget to create a system restore point.
The MagicAAP (Community) driver is the same version as MagicAAP (Official), but it was signed using a workaround by a member of our community.
As a downside, Windows Defender may flag the driver as potentially unwanted software, and some game anti-cheat systems might detect it.
