[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 869756, member: 32260"] In the new H_C ver. 5.0.1.0, I added additional setting profile named [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]Windows_10_Basic_hardening[/B][/COLOR] It is equal to the Recommended Settings, except that in Recommended Settings the EXE and MSI files are allowed only in user AppData and ProgramData folders. In the Windows_10_Basic_hardening settings, the EXE and MSI files are allowed globally. I added the profile description: "[I]Harden Windows 10 while maintaining maximum functionality and compatibility. Please note: this profile allows the user to install/execute/update applications via EXE and MSI files. The only exceptions are EXE and MSI files executed directly from an archive or email client. The scripts, shortcuts and other files with unsafe extensions are blocked by default in UserSpace. The "Run By SmartScreen" entry in the Explorer context menu can be used to check the standalone application installers by SmartScreen Application Reputation service. It is recommended to use this profile with ConfigureDefender HIGH Protection Level (if WD is the main antivirus) and "Recommended H_C" firewall outbound block rules (see <FirewallHardening> option). The profile can be used also with another antivirus with strong proactive detection."[/I] [/QUOTE]
