[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1033110, member: 32260"] Testing is not necessary. After changing the ON mode to OFF/Evaluate mode (via the Registry) and restarting the system, your computer is not protected by SAC. So, [I]in this way, you can compromise the protection it provides. [/I]That is why such a modification is not available from Security Center. Anyway, this is not a consistent view because Microsoft allows the user to turn off the Defender real-time protection from Security Center, but protects such a change via Registry by Tamper Protection. The more secure way would be to protect the SAC Registry entries by Tamper Protection. [/QUOTE]
