Windows Defender
|
As of Friday it seems my window defender doesn’t like DXKeeper running on my machine. I have had to reinstall it three times and every time I do the defender pops up and says that the infected files are being removed. After getting my backup of the database and re-installing it, it does the same thing. It starts with 71.9 Archive then installed update 15.4.9.
I stopped the real time protection and it stays installed.
Am I missing something, this has been working flawlessly for a couple years on this machine.
Thanks
Bob K4HA

Bob, you are missing the numerous posts here about recent Windows Defender actions on some DX Lab Suite applications. The minimum you should do is to open Defender, go to History, view quarantined items, select the entry for DXKeeper, and restore it. You can also make an exception in Defender to exclude the
directory where you have DX Lab Suite applications installed. This
is optional depending on how you feel about limiting the actions
of your AV product. -- 73 Bill G4WJS.

I have added an entry for Windows Defender to the list of applications that can interfere with DXLab applications:
<https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/ApplicationInteference> The new entry provides links to Microsoft's instructions for declaring an application to be "safe" by defining an exclusion, and to Microsoft's instructions for restoring an erroneously-quarantined application. 73, Dave, AA6YQ

I can't prove it, but I believe that even though I had disabled Windows Defender as my virus program, that during the last Windows update it was re-enabled during the update process. I'm going to enable it long enough to exclude DXLabs just to be on the safe side when another Windows upgrade occurs.

Do you have any other AV program on your computer? Windows shouldn't 'help' you by turning on Defender if you have another AV running, Neil, KN3ILZ On 4/14/2020 11:14 AM, Dick Grote via

We use an alternative AV here as well and WIndows-10 Pro did no turn Defender back on at the last update? It has popped up a few "NAG" notices about turning Windows Firewall back on but did not override my current settings.

I run ESET Internet Security – no problems at all. I have Windows 10 Pro, so disabled Defender completely via Group Policies. Peace of mind…
Something Windows DID mess up with a recent update : I keep my time set via Meinberg NTP, which during installation disables the Windows Time Service. Windows decided on it’s own to turn this back on – and as a result interfered with Meinberg…. JTDX (my operating platform of choice) has a nice feature that highlights a warning if the time goes significantly out based on average DTs, and upon checking immediately disabled the offending Windows Time Service – voila, back to exact time!!
Bottom line : after a Windows Update, check EVERYTHING!!!

I do have Norton running. That is why I was surprised that Windows defender got involved.
I had issues that 3 of the DXLab's programs not starting after a Windows upgrade and per Dave's advice, I booted into Safe mode. I launched the three programs in Safe and I had to click through a Windows Defender warning to start the programs. At the time Windows Defender was not my selected AV software, but still it seemed to be in play during the upgrade. And that is why I'm going to go to the effort to exclude DXLabs in Defender even though it isn't selected. -- Dick K6PBF
