Couldnt download windows 10

Windows Defender Security Center limits the threats to five on that page. While you can click on "see full history" to display all items that the security program quarantined, you will notice right away that the buttons to remove or restore files are missing there. What you can try is clear the history, and retry the download. It happens that you get a failed download due to the detection of a virus, but no immediate listing under quarantined threats. The whole process of unblocking files that you want to download that Windows Defender blocked is complicated and to a degree broken.

Why are not there options to remove or restore files in the full history, why do I need to click multiple times to find out more about a threat, and why are not threats listed sometimes in the main interface where you can restore them? Very very annoying.! Two concerns here — recovery and false positive. A pain either way.

Temporary moral? To try to prove a false positive result suspected OK, run against another antivirus application. Windows Defender since day 1, and still is, the worse ever security application. So, for a brief shining moment, Windows Defender worked properly? I suppose hiring some trained professional testers is not on the table because their contempt for their customers makes it an unjustifiable expense.

I wonder how much farther they can fall. Smart people do not use Windows They use Windows 8. Back in April , I completely blocked Defender and would never re-enable it. Instead, I prefer to run on-demand scans, and scan everything through, like, Virustotal.

Common sense is largely what you need, not nannying on the part of Microsoft. If you have McAfee or any virus protection, call them. The problem might be related to that anti-virus software.

The lack of configuration or levels of blocking malwares or potential ones will not go in favour of the Windows security adoption…. I would not recommend this solution - this will turn off UAC leaving you vulnerable to infections and unintended installations of all sorts of things using your administrator privileges if you have them.
