    On a W7 PC this is a false positive produced when you run Windows Defender

    Offline. Using a (USB).

    Do not waste time in trying to resolve this "Severe"Virus.


    Recent W7 WDO definitions, mistakenly recognize HKLM\Software\Policies\

    Microsoft\Windows Defender\DisableAntiSpyware with Dword = 1 as this Virus.


    Windows Defender in Windows 7 is not an antivirus program. And is turned

    "OFF" in most W7 PCs. The "DisableAntiSpyware" = 1 is what turned it off.


    Once again W10 policies conflict with the W7 OS. We can't expect any

    resolution for this anomaly, at this late stage. Just be aware that if you

    run across this situation, it is nothing to be concerned about.


    By the way, another W10 policy has apparently made it impossible to

    create a complete WDO USB, which includes the WDO program. Definitions

    can still be added, but if you create the WDO program, at the same time,

    while using the Mssstool, you will encounter "Definitions Out Of Date" when

    you try to run the program. Of course, most PCs have no internet connectivity

    when booted to the USB. Therefore, you cannot satisfy the request to update.


    If you have WDO on a USB that works, hang on to it. And do not "format"

    before using the Mssstool to update definitions. This is another problem

    that we should not expect Microsoft to resolve. W7 is over the hill!!

    Win32/DefenderTamperingRestore caught by Windows Defender

    Looks like Microsoft has updated the entry on their security site - this is a catch to reconfigure real-time detection if it has been disabled. Below is what is listed on MS's site now:

    Summary

    This detection is for suboptimal configurations that may prevent Windows Defender Antivirus from functioning properly.

    If you see this detection, a suboptimal configuration was detected, and Windows Defender Antivirus will auto-heal by automatically resetting to more secure configurations.

    Win32/DefenderTamperingRestore caught by Windows Defender: Just saw this show up on our virus report on one system and one critical server. Microsoft info on it is non-existent and only 5 days old, however. Anyone else see this? Is it just a false positive from turning AV off temporarily at some point in the past? Thanks in advance!...
