Issue with Windows Defender on Windows 11
I cannot open any of the settings on windows defender, when i try to it tells me to look for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store. Is this a bug or some other (fixable) issue?
- Aug 07, 2021I had this problem on all machines updated from 19043.1151 to 22000.120.
This command from elevated PowerShell fixed the problem for me, try it and report the results:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage

Same EXACT thing happening to me! So frustrating... I purchase an msi Pulse GL66 YESTERDAY
solely for the RTX 3060 GPU & on an early Black Friday on sale. I have dozens of Crypto Mining
Rigs and Hardware Miners; So I figured I'd snatch it up. Now that I cant access any Windows Security setting (Windows Defender is for Windows 10 btw) I cant turn off "Real Time Protection" or make an "exclusion folder." So every time I try to download Mining Software like Unmineable
or NiceHash, It gets flagged and removed; leaving me screwed until they FIX THIS! We already know Microsoft is investing in Crypto and NFT's, and Mining is actually being mass promoted in the USA (disregarding the whole emissions issue) ever since the China Ban. The USA wants to control the majority of Hashing Power yet reputable businesses and institutions that have been proving Mining Software, Algorithms, and Nodes for YEARS to millions of users without issue.
Yet everything if flagged as a virus or malware. If Microsoft wants to keep Edge in the game vs a competitor like Brave... They are going to need to give Edge and edge over the competition. Integrate a setting right in Edge that gives users a place to add the websites they want to allow
download and installs from; have it automatically place that site into a whitelist in Windows Defender/Windows Security. This would force users having issue such as this one, to HAVE to use Edge. At least this would keep people from uninstalling Edge completely and disabling
Internet Explorer!
SO ANNOYING! I'm going to see if members in my Discord know some kind of work around... Maybe I can flash the Program and Software using one of my other PC's, make an ISO or something and see if I can get it installed!
