IMPORTANT WARNING!!!

I am neither a computer nor a cyber-security expert.
I offer this information as a "good faith" attempt to help people who do not seem to understand how to work with Windows Defender. I am merely sharing what I have done and has worked for me.

While believed to be correct, this advice comes with no guarantees of any kind. You alone remain responsible for the security of information on your computer system, as well as the continuing proper operation of your equipment.

The following info explains how to do two things in Windows Defender:

1. Get a file out of quarantine

2. Set up Exclusions for DXLab Suites (or any program) so they don't get quarantined (again)

Doing #2 assumes some risk as has been discussed to death on this list. But it should stop DXL programs from being quarantined.

Doing #1 gets your file out of quarantine, if you had not already done #2, or chose not to do #2 and as a result, will? have to repeatedly do #1 every time a new update comes out.

What follows here is a link to the text file which explains step by step how to do #1 and #2 above. It is taking you to my Google Drive and giving you permission to download it.?

If you are worried that it might contain something bad, don't download it!

If you don't understand the instructions or can't get them to work, I cannot help you. They work for me, and I don't want to be inundated with "how do I" , "how come", "why does it",? etc...

For those whom it can help as it stands, feel free to use it. For those who cannot, look for a better source.

Apr 3 no Commander, but after reading Joe's instructions I was able to
restore Commander.
Apr 3 later same day I lost DXK, Joe's instructions again bailed me out.
Apr7 I believe it was, I again lost DXK, no icon on my desktop etc. This
time I used Joe's procedure to
????????? prevent Defender from messing with DXLab Suite.

Apr 13 this morning open up no icon for DXK and opened up defender and
see that DXK is quarantined.
???????????? So back to Joe's instruction and DXK is back along with the
desk top icon.

I've never seen this before, and fear that there is something else
running around or I should say "it has me running around"
