    Disable Smartscreen filter for a specific website

    Hi Diego,

    To address your concern, the feature to disable Smartscreen filter for a specific website is not available. However, you can disable SmartScreen filter for Edge. Refer to RDrewD2's answer on this

    thread.


    Thanks.

  5. Windows Defender is useless without smartscreen, so disable it only if you are using another AV.

    To get rid of the process, you can remove it or rename it. To restore it, run SFC scan.
    Code: takeown /f "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /a icacls "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /grant:r Administrators:F /c taskkill /im smartscreen.exe /f del "%WinDir%\System32\smartscreen.exe" /s /f /q[/quote]

    Brink,
    Of course! Warning, don't try this at home!

    The website told me about the Tutorials when I posted and they solved the issue.
    Thanks for the response!


    TairikuOkami,
    If Windows Defender was truly useless then it would not flag the Eicar Test File while SmartScreen is disabled. Finding the test file proves Windows Defender is working and not as useless as lead to believe.

    Thanks for the script and taking the time to respond!
