    Controlled Folder Access Shortcut ?


    Is it possible to make a shortcut to Controlled folder access ?

    windows defender > windows defender security center > virus & threat protection >
    virus & threat protection settings > Controlled folder access :


    Since I cant remove the default folders in Controlled folder access; Id be happy with a short cut directly to it .
    I made a shortcut to windows defender security center . That was as close as I could get.

    maybe "God Mode" can help you:

    create one shortcut with this:

    explorer shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

    or

    Create shortcut for Apps Windows 10 ("Metro" apps)
    %windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1}
