Windows 10: Defender quits unexpectedly

Hi


This issue is solved I solved it myself, I only need to know what caused this issue.



I was playing my Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005 on my brother's laptop Windows. I already replaced some cars in it months ago using ModLoader, Ed! The car dealer, and nfsu360 VltEd. Yesterday, when I started it, it showed me that my profile couldn't be saved and autosave is disabled. After wandering in the game settings, I quit the game and Defender started with the Controlled Folder Access stuff I had turned it on and I have all the drives under the Controlled Folder Access' protection. I allowed it to dumb its cache and allowed it to run, and I fixed the autosave problem. When I defeated the racer on blacklist 14 and was about to start the race with the blacklist 13 racer, NFS MW Need For Speed Most Wanted process unexpectedly died. Well, it was the problem with the Toyota Supra mod, so I replaced the mod with a fresh copy of the car by extracting a copy from my installation CD and the game worked as usual.


When I was going to start the race with blacklist 10 racer, it again crashed and the process died. I replaced the mod of Porsche Cayman S with a fresh copy using the same steps. But, when I started playing again, it crashed soon. Then started the Controlled Folder Access stuff again. I again allowed access. I started the game again, but what the heck?!! It crashed again! So again Defender popped up, and I turned off the Controlled Folder Access CFA. Then I started playing again, but not more than 1 minute it crashed again. So I turned on CFA back again. Again- the game crashed. This time, Defender again popped up with its CFA. When I reached the Protection History, the mouse showed a loading symbol and Defender died too. This happened so many times that I, at last, decided to clean the Services folder in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scans\History. It worked normally, and the game too started working as usual with no crashes.


My question is, which component of Windows caused this issue? I didn't have any BSODs in the crashes, and nor the other apps which were open at the time like File Explorer crashed. I don't think I have any dump files, so don't ask for it.


Looking for more info regarding this nasty crash loop.

HP printer turns off unexpectedly

Hi Dudley Campbell,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that your printer turns off unexpectedly.

• When you say “It keeps reporting on it's window that I have a problem” do get any error message?
  
• Does the printer turn off when you are attempting to print?
  
• Did this issue started recently? If yes, then what are the recent changes that you have made to the computer
  prior to this issue?
  

I suggest you refer and follow the suggestions from the following article on
Printer Turns Off Unexpectedly or Repeatedly and check if it resolves the issue.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Zaki
