[QUOTE="plat, post: 955359, member: 74969"] How so? I'm curious, Andy Ful. We want and need this security feature but paradoxically, it's user-unfriendly. So we do without or turn to other programs. Microsoft with its trillion-plus bucks can't throw a few of those bucks at the Defender engineers? It's like your car has this proprietary GPS system that steers you in the wrong direction 1 out of every three times. You really want this feature but it comes with too much of a burden. So you either go without or spend time and money getting an alternative. It's a waste. How many Windows users actually enable CFA for the long term? It's rhetorical, of course, but I kinda would like to know. 🤨🍵🍫 [/QUOTE]
