  1. "your administrator caused windows security to block this connection"


    So I was messing around with malware in a virtual machine, I went ahead and connected to a malicous site, instead an notification popped up in my host with "your administrator caused windows security to block this connection", and the sites connection was stopped, I was wondering what caused this? Could it have been by using ConfigureDefender and turning on most exploit features in windows defender?

    :)

    • Are you using Microsoft account or local account?


    Follow the methods for troubleshooting steps.

    I suggest you to disable the Antivirus and check.

    Disclaimer:

    Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it
    to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    User Account Control is a very important component of Microsoft's overall security image. It helps prevent unauthorized changes on your computer which may affect its security. To resolve your issue, we suggest that you turn off the User Account Control and
    see if it would let you access the program again. To turn off User Account Control in Windows 10, follow the provided steps below:



    • Open your User Control Settings by clicking Start button, and then clicking
      Control Panel. In the search box, type uac, and then click Change User Account Control settings.
    • To turn off UAC, move the slider to the Never notify position, and then click
      OK. If you’re prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password and provide confirmation. You will need to restart your computer for UAC to be turned off.
    Note: Turning off these feature would possibly allow you to open the blocked program but can affect the security of your device.

    Hope this the steps above works for you.
