There are zero accounts listed in "Work or School" within my settings.

    Security scan required

    Your administrator requires a security scan of this item. The scan could take up to 10 seconds.

    I get this message from Windows Defender periodically. Especially when I'm playing video games. I would usually ignore it but it causes lag. windows defender spams this message 19-20 times and that causes lag spikes and low performance in my video games. I clicked on it but it does nothing but redirect me to this webpage -

    What is a cloud security scan? - Microsoft Support

    It doesn't tell me what item. Please help.

    Your administrator requires a secturity scan of this item.

    Hi. Sometimes windows 10 give me this notification

    Security scan required

    Your administrator requires a security scan of this item. The scan could take up to 10 seconds.

    It's gives me this message periodically, and usually when start 3dsmax 2020 or drag'n'drop some plugins in plugins folder.

    I have question, sorry for caps but - WHAT ITEM???

    It's every time says me - THIS ITEM - and every time i press on this notification, and it just redirect me to Enable block at first sight to detect malware in seconds

    this page have horrid Russian translation, but in English i still can't get anything useful from it. Just description of settings I've never touched.

    so...

    First - what item? It didn't say.

    Second - i don't have any malicious files in 3dsmax directory (may be it's some crazy coincidence that i see this message usually wen operate with 3dsmax), no files in exclusion from 3dsmax directory.

    Third - my defender have default settings, i didn't modify anything, except few exclusions for false positive files (nether of them have something to do with 3dsmax), and i only user on this PC, i guess this administrator of mine is just default settings
    of defender.

    It really began annoy me, just because it always ask me for something, but never give me any details expect of just link to settings description, settings I've never touched.

    I also scanned all 3dsmax folder few times, it didn't find anything, but still continue to ask, i mean REQUIRE, to scan so mythic ITEM, that never defined.

    Defender itself, have green check mark, and says that - everything a o.k.

    I also tried to google it - didn't find anything useful about it.

    PS. Checked security log in event viewer, there only audit success entries, probably have nothing to do with defender at all...

    PPS. As u see, I'm little frustrated, so to be clear, what help i want (at least for now) it's answer to question - how can i understand what item windows mean?
