Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Hi,
I am having an issue with an application i have protected with the Enigma Protector v5.3 running on Windows 10 with Windows Defender.
When i right click on the file within Windows Explorer, it takes more than 1 minutes for the popup menu to appear, then if i select 'properties' it also takes an additional minute. So as you could imagine simple actions of copying the file using windows explorer is quite painful.
If i disable 'Real-time protection' for Windows Defender under Windows 10 the popup appears instantly.
I have tested the same file on Windows 7 with no issues, it is definitely an issue with Windows 10 and Windows Defender.
Any Assistance here would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Windows 10 Version:
Version 1511 (OS Build 10586.318)
Windows Defender Info:

Miscellaneous - PLugins - No plugins selected
Application file is only 8mb after protection, 20mb before protection

Confirmed on 5.10 5.20 5.30
Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Unfortunately i've also discovered I have the same issue on clients with Windows 7 PCs running MS Forefront Protection.
I also tried re-protecting with The Enigma Protector v4.40 and have the same issues on Windows 10, with Windows Defender mentioned above.

Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
All Enigma version conflicted with Defender, (3.150, 4.x, 5.x)
Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Just to add myself to the list: confirmed here too. This is a lot worse than the normal delay introduced by Enigma. Starting a protected app now takes about a minute with Windows Defender (Antimalware Service Executable) using an entire core during this time.
Quite certainly introduced with the Windows Defender definition update 1.221.14.0 (Windows 10).

Hmmm, maybe it is bug in windows defender?
Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Guys, we are contacting MS to resolve this issue, please hold on! We are also very disapponted!
Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Guys, to speed up the process, please, submit also your protected files using this form: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securit ... ubmit.aspx
NOTE, the radiobox "I believe this file should not be detected as malware" should be checked there. In the the notes you may say "False Detection of the file protected with Enigma Protector, protected file take few minutes to start."

Re: Windows 10 - Windows Defender Issue
Found that multiple protection systems are affected by this issue, not just Enigma Protector, other major systems also have same problems.
Have a hope that this will be fixed very soon.
