[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 955252, member: 32260"] Are you sure that it blocked the update? I noticed some blocks too some time ago (blocked disk sectors access, Id = 1127), but the update has been installed successfully. CFA can also alert occasionally on some Windows processes (like MoUsoCoreWorker.exe). Generally, I did not notice any negative impact of these blocks. I do not use CFA on my computer, but it is enabled for a long time (over two years) on my family computers without any exclusions and any issues. Despite the blocks, everything works well (including all Windows Updates). [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)]I think that one should take care of the software that can access the disk at a low level (some backup applications, advanced disk cleaners, disk formatting/disk recovery applications, etc.) and simply ignore anything else.[/COLOR] Edit. CFA can be sometimes irritating, but any security based on restricting access to protected disk sectors will produce similar issues. The issues related to CFA are probably less painful compared to similar anti-ransomware solutions. [/QUOTE]
