    Windows Defender keeps removing the software KMSPico from my PC, I am using it because I have already setup windows 10 and used a key previously on my computer but Windows 10 refuses to accept the key as I am using a custom build called Tiny10 to remove unwanted apps, yet Defender keeps removing the app and deleting it stating that it is a virus, I am using it for legitimate reasons & do not want Microsoft dictating what I can & can't use on my own device even though I paid for a legitimate license, i'm fine with Defender quarantining the offending software and giving me the option to

    Remove consent for a child account??

    I have a similar issue. When I go to remove consent, 2 of my children are not even on the list to remove consent.

    Unable to Remove Exclusions from Windows Defender

    Thank you for posting back. If you trust a file, file type, folder, or a process that Windows Defender Antivirus has detected as malicious, you can stop Windows Defender Antivirus from alerting you or blocking the program by adding the file to
    the exclusion list. It seems that it was added automatically. We suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Go to Settings and select Update & security.
    • Click Windows Defender.
    • Look for Exclusions and select Add an exclusion.
    • Navigate to the file, folder, or process, and select Exclude this file.

    If the steps provided did not work, we recommend that you boot your device to
    Safe Mode
    and redo the process.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Windows Defender - File Removed

    Windows defender has removed file from my PC as being a medium level threat, I know this file and I also know that windows detects it a false positive.

    I want Windows defender to return the file to where it was removed from, but am unable to get it to do this.

    I go into defender and its not listed under Quarantined Items.

    but is listed under all detected Items. How can I find this file and return it to where it should be?
