I have installed my driver on Mac OS High Seirra for the first time, "System Extension Blocked" popup appears on screen.

Without responding to this warning I have unInstalled my driver and reboot machine.

But still this warning appears in my System Preferences -> Security & Privacy.

Please suggest how to remove my driver entry from "/private/var/db/SystemPolicyConfiguration/KextPolicy" on uninstallation or is there any other way to handle this situation ?

Thanks.

That’s clearly a bug and you should file it as as such. Please post your bug number, just for the record.

You can’t work around this by modifying the KEXT policy database. The location and format of that database is not considered API and it is protected by system integrity protection.
