[QUOTE="piquiteco, post: 1020060, member: 96829"] I, too, think I will install a third party AV, I don't trust MD anymore, this is not the first time it happens that Microsoft sends a signature with a bug or pushes an update and start deleting user files. In third-party AVs can this happen? yes, of course any AV can happen, to err is human, after all AVs are developed by humans. But as MD comes already installed and integrated in Win10 and Win11 it is almost impossible to deactivate it. The thing is that if I use a third party AV, I will be prepared in case something happens, I will have a backup image, snapshot,etc... I just need to restore and go back to the previous state. On the other laptop that died I was using CIS, I should have followed my instinct and installed CIS, maybe this wouldn't have happened. Ha, there I had RBX installed even if I had MD, it was just back a snapshot 30 seconds would be all back to normal. Before blaming Microsoft and Hard_Configurator, if I had the MD with the default ASR rules, would this have happened? I will leave some screenshots of the default ASR rules in MD. And then just below the second spoiler adjustments made by Hard_Configurator to top.😉 [SPOILER="ASR DEFAULT"] [ATTACH type="full"]272147[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" width="421px"]272148[/ATTACH] [/SPOILER] [SPOILER="Protection Levels High"] [ATTACH type="full"]272152[/ATTACH] [/SPOILER] [SPOILER="ASR rules set by Hard_Configurator to high"] [ATTACH type="full"]272149[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" width="525px"]272150[/ATTACH] [/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
