ConfigureDefender utility for Windows 10

Had a look but I have no idea what these logs mean. But thanks for the idea. Unless Andy knows what's going on I'll have to try to figure it out by uninstalling Cyberlock and/or allowing Defender scanning again.

I pointed you to the wrong log. You want to check Developer.ServiceLog.Log. Check that and if you can't ID the culprit, then uninstalling VS is the way to eliminate it as the problem or not.

which version cyberlock, I've had one or 2 minor issues, sent CL log to Dan, he says he spotted it, and 7.62 coming soon.

I thought it may have something to do with Defender updates also as the Cyberlock log shows Windows downloading and installing a delta patch at the same time as the CD event. I've changed the setting in Task scheduler to allow the scan and no change, I still get the Defender event. I get this popup when starting the computer, not sure why it says I'm using another av program.

Even if you installed another AV, Defender can still perform periodic scanning. You can disable it from Security Center.

Yes, I looked there too, nothing looked funky but I really have no idea what to look for.

7.61

In which case, uninstall VS and restart machine to check for alerts or errors. Or restore the scheduled task for Defender you disabled.

Yes, but I'm not running another AV, maybe I'll try uninstalling CS tomorrow to see if that makes a difference.

I restored the task, makes no difference. I uninstalled CS, and viola, no alerts anymore. So it seems like CS was the culprit, very strange indeed.

As I suspected.

What is CS?

Brain cramp. I meant CL, Cyberlock.
Edit: And I'm a dummy, I did it twice.

did you tell Dan that VS/CL 7.61 was the culprit, maybe he can tweak code before he releases 7.62...

Nope, I posted about an issue I was having with CL a few months ago in its thread and he didn't reply so I'm not going to bother this time.

depending on forum dynamics, I think he does not check MT every day, and he may miss a post, but my experience emailing support, he has always quickly responded, and then responds back after he has investigated. I emailed him my log.log several days ago, he said he figured out issue from my log, and thinks that fix will be incorporated into 7.62. (that's why I asked...)

Yah, he's usually very good at responding to issues or requests. I'm not going to post though as I've uninstalled CL for now.
