[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 991487, member: 32260"] Not exactly. It is dangerous to open Excel files if one uses 3rd party AV. In such a case one has to use SwitchDefaultDeny to run the DocumentsAntiExploit tool and apply "Current user restrictions". If Excel files are blocked, then additional hardening via the DocumentsAntiExploit tool is not necessary. If one uses Defender with ConfigureDefender HIGH settings and the H_C option "Adobe+VBA" is enabled, then the Excel files are protected similarly to files opened by Word or PowerPoint. One does not have to additionally use the DocumentsAntiExploit tool via SwitchDefaultDeny. So, when Excel files are blocked by SRP, a similar setup can be applied for Defender and 3rd party AVs.
