PS C:\Portables\Tools> .\checkip.exe
Program 'checkip.exe' failed to run: Access is deniedAt line:1 char:1
+ .\checkip.exe

Hi @cdprf. I don't have access to Windows (I use Linux + Mac) but a quick googling gave me this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69671055/program-a-exe-failed-to-run-access-is-deniedat-line1-char1. Are you maybe running some antivirus program?

thanks for the info,

yes i guess its related with some kind of security issue, i am using Windows defender, that folder was in exlusion list.

somehow its blocking. even i disable av i still cannot run.

i installed Mcafee , then scan my pc, then remove it. also tryed to resetting Windows defender settings completely but no luck atm.

current situaition of my console like this.

PS C:\Users\yunus> checkip.exe 172.64.146.***

@cdprf what happens when you run it again?

still not working, but i found the problem.

microsoft's new 365 defender stuf has a "Attack surface reduction" and its blocking powershell windows, then block checkip.exe too. now i am trying to leave that microsoft 365 thingy. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/protect/endpoint-protection-windows-10#attack-surface-reduction-rules

thanks for the help.
