Yikes! Cruel Comodo folks also using Controlled Folder Access? Why?
CFA is of definite use to our less informed Brothers and Sisters (those using things other than CF), but with a downside of leaving unprotected the plethora of other folders that are not included in the initial setup. This is because CFA neither detects nor stops in any way the mechanism of ransomware, but instead is coded to stop malicious actions on those things that the User tells it to protect (and God knows if it actually will work for all forms of ransomware- I personally have not tested it as it bores me...).
Anyway, for those that use traditional Security Protection Modalities CFA is indeed an upgrade. But for CF folks- we can pretty much sit back, not obsess over such things, and when we see posts regarding what should or should not be included in CFA instead contemplate on the Words of the Immortal Bard:
"Lord, What Fools these Mortals Be..."
