    How can I restore a removed/deleted threat or app?


    I have a cracked Sims 4 and Windows Defender deleted it. Please see picture attached.Before, it will allow me to restore the threat but now it doesn't have that option anymore. Someone help me please. It is not in the Quarantined files as well.

    :)

    WINDOWS DEFENDER IS NOT REMOVING THREATS

    Hello PaulPChou,

    This one works. You're correct I chose removed but it just doesn't remove the threats it says working and after working the threats are still listed. I ran the safety scanner, reboot, scan in safe mode, scan in clean boot but neither of those works to remove
    the listed threats.

    Just as I thought all I need is to manually delete the file where it contains the threats list just like a log file.

    Thanks for providing the path where it stores the list.

    Best regards,

    Lelouch

    WINDOWS DEFENDER IS NOT REMOVING THREATS

    I'm having a problem with Windows Defender the threats found after I ran a full scan that last maybe around 10 hours cannot be removed by windows defender. I selected the remove option and it shows processing but after a while
    the threats are still listed and active. I already ran a offline scan and a quick scan but neither fix the problem.

    I already ran a secure boot and see if third-party apps are causing the problem but nothing works the threats are still listed and active. I checked the location of the file and manually deleted it even on my recycle bin but
    the threats are still there and labeled as active. This very annoying. I think this is an error in the windows defender part because I installed Malwarebytes and ran a full scan which took a couple of hours and found nothing because like I've said I have deleted
    the file location where the threats are.

    How can I restore a removed/deleted threat or app?

    (Simple Guide) How to permanently delete Steam games/ How to restore previously deleted Steam games

    Good suggestion, added to the OP. I may play around with the layout so it's clearer. As for duration, I'm not entirely sure. I know that my Crysis games were removed for at least a year and had no problems restoring them.

    EDIT - There you go, should be a lot clearer now *Smile How can I restore a removed/deleted threat or app? :)
