Hello,
I updated to Windows 10 version 1903 and Windows Defender started blocking programs that seem safe. They are either from Microsoft itself or from VAIO Care (I have a Sony laptop). Here is a list of the programs that were blocked.
- ioloTools.exe (this is something of VAIO Care)
- wscript.exe (this is Microsoft's)
- DiskTrace.exe (this one was from Intel, I read that it was safe to uninstall so I did it)
- powershell.exe (this is Microsoft's too)
*edit:
- VCAdmin.exe (something from VAIO Care)
The notification says something like "Controlled folder access blocked *folder path* from making changes to memory/disk". I read in another post that it is something of Windows Defender to protect against the ransomware virus, but why is it blocking programs from Windows itself? How do I stop it from making me crazy with all the notifications (it hasn't been 24hs since I updated and I've received almost 10 of them)? I want it to protect me from real danger and not from this programs that I believe should work without any inconvenience, if not its going to be like the "Shepherd's Boy and the Wolf" (I won't pay attention when needed because of the amount of unreal danger notifications it gives me).
Thank you,
Regards,
Mercedes
