[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 864203, member: 32260"] The funny thing about the new version is that If [USER=64646]@askalan[/USER] would test this version one year ago, then the results could be probably even better. [URL unfurl="true"]https://malwaretips.com/threads/hard_configurator-february-2019-report.90240/[/URL] The only one sample which bypassed SmartScreen App Rep (and so H_C) in five months of testing (January - May 2019) would be probably mitigated. Simply, in the test from the year 2019, the RunAsSmartScreen was used, which ran the malicious file with high privileges after the SmartScreen check. The malware could use scripting to infect the computer. The new Recommended Settings on Windows 8+ use InstallBySmartScreen which runs the executable (EXE, MSI) with standard rights and still, H_C can block/restrict scripting. [/QUOTE]
