We last wrote a brief on this topic in 2020, and since then Microsoft has been improving the integrated solution, which of course can also be found in Windows 11. On the other hand, those running a stolen operating system can now be affected by one of the existing Defender updates.
the Newen according to his report Because the security information update with version number 1.395.68.0, published a few days ago, blocked the program called AutoKMS (Key Management Software), which is used to activate Windows without payment. In principle, a solution that circumvents Microsoft’s authentication system on Windows 10, Windows 11 and Windows Server 2016 and 2019 is also blocked.
Those affected can take comfort in the fact that Windows 10 and Windows 11 can still be used even if the system detects “ugliness,” as Redmonds only limits a few functions in this case. The update also fixes a security vulnerability in Windows Defender and turns on new kernel-level protection.
It is also worth paying attention to the latter, since already in June Microsoft notified users that the solution could cause confusion in the operation of some third-party software. Official description of Windows Defender Update 1.395.68.0 It can be read by clicking here.
