Nearly a year later, after a definition update, it suddenly wouldn’t allow the volume shadow copy service (vss.exe) from Windows to run as it’s supposed to during an update’s installation. I wanted to use chkdsk to check a disk’s file structure, but controlled folder access wouldn’t allow the program to run, even with administrator privileges, so I added it to the exemption list. This, to me, seems like a better option that will still allow the folder/folders to be protected, but still allow your program to access them to edit the files as you see fit.Īs an aside, I first ran across the controlled folder access problem when I first used Windows 10.
Clicking on this item will allow you to add the music file editing program to an exemption list of sorts so that it will be allowed to access the folder on the NAS that your music is in so you can edit their properties as you see fit. Before you do this, though, please read on.īUT, another item may very well say “Allow an app through Controlled folder access”. D oing this will remove them from protection. If you find the folders on the NAS that hold your music files on this list, you can remove those from the list if you like. Click on that and you can add folders to the protection or remove them from protection. One of those items should say “Protected folders”. There should also be some options below it, again in blue colored type. You should now be looking at a page that has Controlled folder access on it and a slider to either turn it off or on. Once that’s opened, scroll sown the page until you see “Ransomware protection” and click on the blue colored type that says “Manage ransomware protection” just under it. Open Windows Security and click on the item that says “Virus & threat protection”.
To get to Controlled Folder Access, here’s what I have to do (and I’m presuming that it’s really similar or identical in Windows 11):
Id3 editor windows 7 free#
If, after reading the process below, someone who has Windows 11 22H2 or 21H2 knows of any difference in how you get to Controlled folder access in Windows11, please feel free to chime in! Controlled Folder Access is a feature that’s built into Defender, and you access it from within Defender.
Id3 editor windows 7 windows 10#
I don’t have Windows 11, but I DO have Windows 10 22H2.
