Tested the Microsoft 365 apps (Stable and insider builds) that were added to the list with their new process mitigations on physical hardware and VMs, multiple times, used different features of each app, used OneDrive personal and business, everything works normally as expected.

Added checks to make sure Microsoft Defender is not running in Passive mode, before running the hardening measures.
