    Yeah, and they can’t get rid of “sideloading” without literally killing their entire company because gigantic corporations, where they make the majority of their money, are the ones the most beholden to legacy software that would be blocked if they did. Banks, governments, hospitals, schools…….everything would not be able to function.

      Well I think you’re moving the goalpoast a little here 😅, but believe me, they already do, lots of soft that doesn’t get around the windows defender.

            I’m talking about on your own machine. Obviously it’s different if you’re using a work-controlled machine that you don’t control.

            Defender, on your own machine that you control, never completely stops you from installing things. Seems you just don’t know how to ignore the defender warnings lol.

                Corporate pc defender rules are set by the corporation - of course the end user can’t bypass their rules.

                Microsoft don’t set those rules, each individual company does. What you’re saying makes no sense.
