How can I change a program that I trust from "not yet classified" into
"allowed".

Hi

First you need to be an "Advanced Spynet member"
, information is then transferred to Spynet (Microsoft)
when you "Allow" this program to run.

With enough user transfers a "voting" is started and this
application can be safe declared from Spynet and WDs database
can be updated with this application.

About Spynet transers this is unclear what exactly is transmitted ?
MS privacy document talks about information "such as"........

MS can also "control" 3rd party application in this way and keep them
as "unknown", not good.

You cannot perform a "Always allow" and deside this on your own.

Microsoft must open declare how this works and it must be possible
for an "administrator" to control any program with "Always allow".

I am going to test to change firewall rules and block all transmissions
to Spynet.

A workaround for "Allow" is to put the application inside the
"Do not scan following applications and paths" within General Settings

Unbelievable mess for a more advanced user............ but maybe this
is designed only for "Mrs/Mr/Ms Smith"......

I clicked this choice (and so agreed that some kind of unknown personnal
info should be transfered to MS).

And any way to choose an option allowing what is existing before MS Defender
installation?

I have some apps like WkCalRem.exe (which is the reminder of the very old
"Microsofts Works 6.0") with a status "Not yet classified" a spynet voting
"In progress" and nothing which can allow me to vote for this one. I think
that this could be a (small) bug in user interface.

MS is still keeping his own applications as "in progress" and this could be
for a long time if it need a minimal amount of "voting" and no way to vote
;-)

Hi

Well, it´s nothing to do about this and MS has tried to explain this
within several messages.

One "Always allow" must be coming but it´s then a challenge that
newbies clicks on this nevertheless if it´s safe or not.

I_am_a_malware.exe > "Always allow"..........
