Defender on macOS - conflicting applications
I have also been wondering about this. Perhaps there is an exclusion path Microsoft recommends. Please let us know what Microsoft support says.
Tempest62 wouldn't the exclusion path be set on Microsoft Defender and not on Mosyle? In that sense, you can have Defender not scan that file and just see it as inoccuous.

Tempest62EnderGGI tried with creating exclusion for whole Mosyle folder:
"/Library/Application Support/Mosyle/"
according to this article:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/mac-exclusions#supported-exclusion-types
However, there is no change.
It looks like the app conflict is at the system level and this exclusion is for antivirus scan. Am I right?Btw, created 2 tickets for Microsoft support(10 days ago) and there is no response from their side.
