[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 998676, member: 32260"] [B][SIZE=5]The Defender's horror of testing many MSI samples.[/SIZE][/B] [SIZE=4]I tried to test 76 MSI samples packed in one archive. [/SIZE] [LIST=1] [*][SIZE=4]Unpacking the archive with enabled real-time protection failed.[/SIZE] [*][SIZE=4]I disabled real-time protection and unpacked the archive into a separate folder. After enabling the real-time protection and performing the manual scan of this folder, Defender worked hard for many minutes. I saw several alerts and started the Defender actions without much progress.[/SIZE] [*][SIZE=4]After half an hour, I restarted the system, but this did not help too.[/SIZE] [*][SIZE=4]Finally, I gave up.[/SIZE] [/LIST] [SIZE=4]In the real world, Defender is OK when one remembers to do a manual scan of the MSI file before executing it. But, testing many samples located in one folder is probably impossible.[/SIZE]:( Edit ([B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]no subfolders[/COLOR][/B]). There is a kinda solution: [LIST=1] [*]Disable real-time protection and unpack samples to the folder ([COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]no subfolders[/B][/COLOR]). [*]Upload this folder to OneDrive. [*]Download the folder from OneDrive (online) to the disk. [/LIST] You will see a ZIP archive that contains the folder. There will be some undetected samples and many .txt files (every txt file includes info about the detection event). When downloading files from OneDrive, they are checked by the online service (not by Defender installed on the computer). [/QUOTE]
