Microsoft Defender VPN will stop rolling out to Microsoft 365 subscribers
Back in 2023, Microsoft launched a new feature for Microsoft Defender users called Privacy Protection.
Microsoft Defender is an easy-to-use security application that protects your device and personal data from spyware, viruses, or other online threats. However, it can sometimes interfere with certain processes, such as installing third-party software, by falsely flagging them as malware . In such situations, you may want to disable Microsoft Defender for a specific application or file.
Method 1: Add exclusions to Windows Defender
Open Windows Security, press Win + S and search for Windows Security .
Open Virus & threat protection from the left panel or the main menu Security at a glance .
Select Manage settings .
Scroll down to the Exclusions section and click Add or remove exclusions .
Windows User Account Controller will ask you for permission to make changes to the device. Click Yes to continue.
Click Add an exclusion to add items to exclude from the virus scan. Select files, folders, or even processes (depending on your needs). In case of third-party software installation, select the entire folder containing the application.
By adding items to this menu, Microsoft Windows Defender will exclude them from future scans. Make sure you only add files from trusted sources.
Method 2: Provide Controlled Folder Access to the Application
Providing Controlled Folder Access will protect files, folders, and storage areas on your device and block apps (including antivirus programs) from making any changes to them. You're essentially creating a list of trusted apps.
To provide Controlled Folder Access, open Manage Settings (as specified above): Windows Security -> Virus & threat protection -> Manage Settings . Select Manage Controlled folder access .
Under Controlled Folder Access, turn on the toggle and click Allow an app through Controlled folder access .
Click Add an allowed app and select one of the functions from the drop-down menu. If the app is blocked by Windows Security, select Recently blocked apps . To select a new app, click Browse all apps .
Method 3: Using Registry Editor
If you're using Windows 11 Home, you can configure Registry Editor values to exclude an application from Microsoft Defender scanning.
Open the Registry Editor by pressing Windows + R and typing regedit. Or, type Registry Editor into the Start menu.
Navigate to the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Exclusions
Right-click Exclusions , click New and select DWORD (32-bit) Value from the drop-down menu.
Enter a Value name after your application. For example: JayKakade.exe. Set the value data to 1 and click OK .
