Blacklisted software

If any of the programs on the software blacklist are found, the program executes a specific set of instructions. It is common for a scan to occur on installation, but nothing stops a program from periodically scanning later. There are a number of common programs that are found on a basic software blacklist. Programs that are used by hackers , such as disk duplicators, software debuggers or patch creators, are common.

Also among these lists are several disk-authoring programs that have the ability to mount disk images on virtual drives. It is this last group that causes the most unintentional positives on a software blacklist, as this type of burning software is very common. You can also generate the Prohibited Software Report to find the computers in your network using such applications at any given point of time. For more details, refer to the Configure Prohibited Software topic in the online help.

Hi Zetrix, first, to be clear I am not a microsoft employee I am a windows 10 user. How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. In reply to Martmcd's post on June 2, Not a new computer, irrelevant question.

I redownload the same thing from different sources, same error messages. I would hope that a blacklist would target the snake oil apps such as driver fixers or pc optimisers, rather than game mods there is a temporary??
