Windows Defender - unable to remove items from the 'allowed list'

[Guest Jeff]

I wonder if anyone can assist. I wish to remove some items from the Windows

Defender 'Allowed items' - but it will not allow me to do this under my sign

in, or that of admins. Indeed the 'allowed items' list doesn't even show any

items that have previously been permitted.

 

I have also tried to effect 'sysem restore', but it would appear that there

is no safe restore point.

 

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

 

Kind regards.

Microsoft has established separate newsgroups for Windows Defender support

and comments. This is not one of them.

TIP: Access these newsgroups using your default newsreader, not your

browser. See instructions on above page.
