[Bug]: Defender warning of "viruses" can't be disabled

hihilogic-dev commented 3 months ago

Description

I've been trying to run a couple batch files, and even some setup files as well, but it keeps returning an error that there is a "virus or potentially unwanted software". Usually, I would just go into settings and disable it, but clearly the settings has been stripped down and thus there is no way to disable it. Coincidentally, this also means I can no longer run the revert processes, since they are also a batch file, meaning that I no longer have means to restore Defender. Even when pressing the run button on my computer, Terminal will appear for a second and then immediately disappear. I would prefer to have all the settings i have activated reverted, so i can come back to this program at a later date, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Reproduction steps

Not sure what constitutes as a "virus", since a lot of setup files are basically a coinflip on whether it's actually going to run or not

Expected behavior

Did you initially disable Defender before this?

@hihilogic-dev Can you please send the script?

May be same as #413, most likely caused by #421

This should not happen if you did not disable Defender if you do not use privacy.sexy. Try reverting Disable Defender user interface category.

When in doubt, create a script with all tweaks reverted and:

rename the script to something random (sdjfdsf.bat)
remove the first 2 comment lines in the script

@echo off
- :: https://privacy.sexy — v0.13.6 — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 01:37:12 GMT
- :: Ensure admin privileges
fltmc >nul 2>&1 || (

Right click > properties > uncheck the block checkbox

Comment: the line removal is a fix for the microsoft-introduced windows defender "precaution" against privacy.sexy that I observed.
