[QUOTE="BSONE, post: 1120412, member: 108351"] I am finding that Microsoft are becoming much more responsive with their whitelisting of unknown apps. I think that they are finally serious about the future of Smart App Contol going forward. For example this week I downloaded AnythingLLM and SAC blocked the installation.I did a VT scan and it had only one warning, so I decided to do a Norton Power Eraser rootkit scan which flagged the app as suspicious because it was new with zero reputation. I then tried to install the app about an hour later and it installed perfectly. Another example was today when I upgraded my Windsribe client from stable to beta within the app. Result: blocled by SAC. Dowloaded the .exe from Windscribe and and installation was also blocked. I tried the same file 20 minutes later and it worked perfectly. In both instances, I did not manually send the files to Microsoft for Analysis. [/QUOTE]
