I got the same problem when installing drivers for my BeagleBone Black board. You need to disable driver signature enforcement before installing drivers if you are using Windows 10.

Go to Setting > Updates & Security > Recovery > Advanced startup > click on Restart

After restarting, Windows switch to Advanced startup mode. Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup settings > click on Restart

After restarting, press F7 to select Disable driver signature enforcement

enter image description here

Now you can install drivers for your board.

I followed this tutorial https://youtu.be/mxMMf-8d6x4

Windows 10 rejects the BeagleBoard drivers because they are not signed. You can temporarily disable required driver signing by going through the Advanced Boot options.

You can use the advanced boot options menu to boot Windows 10 with driver signature enforcement disabled. This isn’t a permanent configuration change. The next time you restart Windows, it will boot with driver signature enforcement enabled—unless you go through this menu again.

To do this, get to the Windows 8 or 10 advanced boot options menu. For example, you can hold down the Shift key while you click the “Restart” option in Windows. Your computer will restart into the menu.

A current / latest image does not need any additional drivers installed.

You should have:

  • One USB drive with files
  • One USB serial port
  • One USB network port

The device exposes a second network port that is not used by Windows. Other operating systems prefer that port over the one used by Windows.

Note: If you don't see those devices, then your Beaglebone has not booted into the image. Usually that's pretty obvious by looking at the LEDs. There should be one solid, and two blinking. If you have problems, write the image to the card again and also make sure to hold down S2 while powering on the device!
