When Windows 11 was leaked, I was hoping we would see a usable Defender UI, but unfortunately it had not changed a bit. Defender is great under the hood but it is incredibly frustrating to use. It is also certainly not bulletproof and Redmond’s idea of zero trust is much different from mine, but at least it is something to work from.

So I decided to build a fully functional Defender UI. Here are some preliminary screenshots, a beta version will be really in a week or two.

I'm looking forward to the beta version!

As an aside, DUI is translated by Google as 'drunk driving'. I was confused when I saw the title of the thread.

Looks good. You have made the next step in the right direction.

Really beautifully and elegantly done! It certainly has enough options.

The only thing I would add is a "Prevent Malware From Ever Infecting This System" button (with the default setting of OFF so Folk Like Me can have few giggles).

Wow .

What will it cost?

 

[Balrog]

I'm certainly not a fan of Windows Defender, but the effort you put into implementing a tool to control program settings deserves credit. Thanks.

Really nice looking, maybe you could also include a dashboard about which part is on or off? Such as fireball: on/off, then something to click so u can see the details?

Yeah, one of the main reasons I am building this app is to build a template for the new VS design. So VS will have the same template / theme once we hear everyone's ideas and have everything finalized.

Thank you, I appreciate that! You have amazing designs as well!

Cool, it should not be long . Yeah, I have a knack for choosing odd names .

Thank you CS, I appreciate that!

Your wish is my command .

And here is what it does...

Wow .

Thank you! It will probably be free, it's hard to say for sure.

Yeah, most people feel strongly one way or the other about Defender. I actually like it pretty well, but it is impossible to use and manage. Hopefully DUI will change that .

Thank you! I am not exactly sure what you mean. The toggle buttons you see indicate if a feature is on or off. There will certainly be all of the necessary details, but if I forget any that we need, please let me know!

Something i see as an important change to the handling of Microsoft Defender is when it blocks/quarantines downloaded files, that can be way easier. Now it is quite cumbersome.

And of course, all in one place with a good overview is a success compared to now.

I agree. The difficulty with Defender is the complexity of post-processing.

 

[Digmor Crusher]

Would this work as a replacement for Configure Defender?? Enquiring minds want to know.

Yeah, exactly, there are many frustrating features in Defender, and the goal of DUI is to solve all of these.
