[ RESOLVED ] Windows defender - threats found but can not get details


Recommended Posts

Whenever WD detects threats - in this case, I am sure it is a FP - it shows this:

There is nothing I can do except completely disable it. I ran a quick scan - which showed nothing - but this still appeared

This occurs when I tell MBAM not to register with the Windows Security center, but also in tests on VMs.

@AdvancedSetup I have already opened an topic in Windows Malware Removal which has those logs

Nevermind, it seems to be a temporary glitch. Now I can see what it detected and they are all FPs

Thanks for both of you for helping

Is there a way I can delete this or mark it as resolved?
