    I suggest the following simple steps:

    1. Set the autosave options in MS Office to a low value say 5 minutes.
    2. Setup file history to autosave frequently - the shortest period is 5 mins
    3. Install Macrium Reflect Free and configure it to do a daily incremental system backup

    You should be well covered if you do the above to protect your key files.

    Protection History Crashing

    The title says it all. I've found numerous articles on the Internet with this very issue. A file gets blocked from accessing a protected folder, you click the notification, and the Protection History pops up. You can then click the blocked apps and choose
    whether to allow or leave it blocked.

    For a few days now, when I click Protection History, the UI pops up and then crashes after a few seconds of attempting to retrieve the history. It never actually displays the apps that were blocked. This is going to be an issue since I install a lot of things
    that attempt to access protected folders and I need to choose what to allow and what not to allow. I've tried several things, including a System Restore to a few days prior, but none of that has helped.

    This appears to a relatively common Windows Defender issue. I need to know how to fix this, short of a clean Windows install. I've been in IT for almost 20 years and am comfortable navigating files and registry.
