Windows 10: NimoFilm PowerScan software appears will not run as Defender says it is unsafe.

Once loaded, NimoFilm software for ION Power Scan slide scanner is said by Defender to be severely unsafe.

Any ideas?

W 10 Defender says "This Website Reported Unsafe", but it's not

Hello; a website I've gone to often, www.karensbakery.com , has recently been flagged in RED by Defender SmartScreen, says "This Website Reported Unsafe, threats to your computer.....", and you cannot proceed. When I called them to tell them, they said
no problem there, many others can access it. It seems only my pc with WIN 10 & Edge is showing that. How do I check why I'm being blocked by Defender Smartscreen? No other website has ever shown that, so it's not Edge. Appreciate any help, thanks. Steve F.

 

windows defender keeps saying it finds "potentially harmful software" but nothing listed.

Running latest windows 10.

Defender keeps notifying "potentially harmful software..." but nothing is listed.

Also - when I run a quick scan, defenders says "app detected a potential threat" but nothing is listed in History or in "all detected items".

I don't care about the threat but I do want defender to stop notifying me. I'd like to "allow" whatever it is defender is finding but nothing is ever listed. I would like to fix the problem but I'd be satisfied if I just completely removed defender from
my system to stop the notifications.

What are my options?

 

Windows Defender Not On

Hi,



Welcome to Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.



I would suggest you to try the below methods and check:

Method 1:

I would suggest you to run virus scan to make sure the computer is free from virus.

The Microsoft Safety Scanner is a free downloadable security tool that provides on-demand scanning and helps remove virus, spyware, and other malicious software. It works with your existing antivirus software.

Method 2:

Turn the Defender on. Follow the below steps:

• In search, type Defender.
• Now make the option ON by moving the slider accordingly.

Method 3: Run the SFC.

Follow the below steps:

• Open Command Prompt.

• Select “Run as Administrator”.
• Type “sfc /scannow” without quotes and hit
  Enter.

Now check for the issue.
