Windows 10: About the "Controlled Folder Access" in windows defender...

Although not that important, I noticed that when you open Winders Defender, and then click on Virus and threat protection settings, and then scroll down to controlled folder access,..

It states, " Protect your files and folders from unauthorized CHANGED by unfriendly applications "


I think the D in changed, is supposed to be an S. Should be Changes !

:)

 

meltdown patch

Windows Defender is compatible. If having trouble with the update disable the controlled folder access in Defender.

I had no problems installing the patch. I do not use the controlled folder access though.

 

Pop-Up Message - Unauthorized Changes Blocked

Thank you so much... I now understand and have now fixed the issue.

 

I agree*Party Have you submitted feedback about it?

 

LOL ,.... No I haven't. Not quite sure how to do that. But if someone else wants to do it, it's fine with me !

Now everytime I go to that folder, it's going to stick out like a sore thumb ! LOL !

 

Here you go Ray. *Smile

Mine doesn't, it says: "...from unauthorised changed...."
('s' instead of 'z', at least they got the UK spelling right *Biggrin )

On a related note, the date format used by the Defender Security Centre is now correct for my region, in 1703 it used the US mm/dd/yyyy for everyone, regardless of regional settings.

 

Thankyou ! It has been submitted,... I didn't know what category to place it in, but I'm sure they will figure it out. I just quoted what I wrote in the post, about the misspelling.
