Actually if you use Defender you are using exploit protection - it's turned on by default. To be strictly accurate, what I should have said is that you haven't looked at its settings yet. When you do it will be total garbage in 16299.309, as per my first screenshot.

As you said. It was garbage but corrected in 16299.334

A mixed bag, some computers [both Desktop and Notebooks] worked fine but 2 Notebooks and 1 Desktop running Build 16299.214 had to be updated to Build 16299.309 before KB4089848 would install.

Hmmmm.......

Now it's my turn to go "Hmmmm....".

It may be that the en-us version is the only one not affected. It has been confirmed in this thread that for at least the UK English and Italian language versions the text is screwed. It wouldn't be the first time a bug has been introduced in some of the translations.

Lol. . . I'm just glad we're not still stuck with Starband !

Wouldn't be the first time, probably won't be the last either....

Hi Bree: I don't use WD and the .309 update turned it on and screwed up Norton Internet Security running properly. Then W10 posted a Notification Center message that the system had an antivirus protection issue. Look at all of the revenue all of those MS certified techs are generating for their employers. Another day, another update.

Similar problems on my system with Norton Security. Every thing looks normal and the taskbar icons for WD Security Center and Norton Security show Green check mark. If I open WDSC it shows a warning on the Virus and Threat Protection that the security service is stopped and needs a restart. If I go to Security and Maintenance under Security the only thing showing is User and Account Control. Not Antivirus or Firewall shows. Then is a short time everything clears and it shows Norton in control.

Apparently this update is shutting down the security service and takes a minute or so to turn it back on.

Not good.

Well I've checked for this update for last few hours, and all I get is I am up to date. I'm still on build .309 here. Maybe they pulled it, I don't know...
