New Update Testing ConfigureDefenderPM (Policy Manager version)

[Andy Ful]

does H C where ConfigureDefender blocks Windhawk MODS every WIndows update where it's Portmaster?

To see if H_C blocks the concrete application, you must inspect the H_C Log (Tools >> Blocked Events / Security Logs).
Depending on the settings, H_C can block the application "G:/Portable Apps/Start.exe".
Before inspecting the H_C Log, you can temporarily Switch OFF the H_C SRP restrictions to see if the issue disappears.

I noticed that Microsoft Defender sometimes alerts Trojan:Win32/Commando.A!ml when using the REMOVE button. I am in contact with Microsoft to solve this issue.

I removed H_C because I was having trouble accessing certain shortcuts, even though everything seemed fine in the settings...



I'm using ConfigureDefender and FirewallHardening separately...

Maybe WHHLight later...



I noticed that ConfigureDefender can be found separately (*.exe), but not FirewallHardening...



So I’m using an old WHHLight folder...



Is that OK?
Can I use these tools without using WHHLight?

Thanks

Shortcuts can be whitelisted in H_C (Whitelist By Path >> Add Path*Wildcards).

Your tools are outdated. You can get a newer version of the WHHLight package and use ConfigureDefender and FirewallHardening without using WHHLight.
You can also use ConfigureDefenderPM instead of ConfigureDefender.

ConfigureDefender_4100 and FirewallHardening_3011 I guess ?


I applied the rules using the older versions...

Do I need to reapply everything using these updated versions?

It is not necessary.
