Title: Help with Windows Defender on Windows 10
Post by: PaPa-J on June 06, 2018, 10:58:18 AM
I am running Windows 10 pro which was just recently updated to build 17134.81.

Since the update to this build I am no longer able to install any software (downloads from the LEX) without Windows Defender blocking the instillation.  I have to go in and configure Windows Defender to allow each individual instillation program (.exe) to run before I'm allowed to install.  I am not even allowed to copy files to my documents folder unless I do it as an administrator.

Is there some sort of setting that I can tweak to allow me to run install programs without have to configure each program individually?

Thanks for any and all help!

It sounds like UAC got turned on.

How do I turn it off?


EDITED:  Disregard, I found UAC and it is set to never notify.  So, I assume that means it is turned off.  Same problem though.
