[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 805271, member: 32260"] I use Shadow Defender daily in the shadow mode on boot. It is very useful but: [LIST=1] [*]It cannot protect you against the infections, but only keeps your disk (in shadow mode) untouched. [*]The malware can spy you, steal credentials and confidential data, infect the router, etc. [*]The malware can get persistence by infecting the router. [*]You can be infected by the ransomware, and this can affect the data on the external drives, which are not in the shadow mode. [*]Sometimes Windows tries to update in the shadow mode. [*]Sometimes Shadow Defender can cause problems after upgrade (never happened to me). [/LIST] Yet, Shadow Defender has so many advantages ... :love: Post edited. I am not sure about protecting the EFI system partition, but SD should protect it too. [/QUOTE]
