[QUOTE="plat, post: 894596, member: 74969"] Thanks for the replies so far. I want to make it very clear: this is NOT a critique of Microsoft. This is questioning the efficacy of Controlled Folder Access within a given scenario. Can this concept be absorbed and future replies tailored accordingly, please? Thanks! :mad: The alert from CFA contains the following text: [ATTACH type="full" alt="hwinfocfa.png"]244380[/ATTACH] What is that block instance supposed to affect in HWINFO? Like I said, to my eyes all sensors were recorded and seemingly functioning in real time. RAM timings were recorded as usual. System Summary, CFA took even longer to alert, but all info was shown in the HWINFO boxes. And that is why I said I may go elsewhere for a reply. The dev of HWINFO has a forum, I'll check it out later. My point: I thought it was all or nothing when it came to CFA. Here: an alert and the program runs anyway, SEEMINGLY unchecked. [/QUOTE]
