Manage Blocked Autoruns


    Click 'Tasks' > 'General Tasks' > 'Unblock Autoruns'
      • The 'Unblock Autoruns' area shows applications that were blocked by the boot protection feature of XCS.
        • The feature monitors attempted changes to the registry records of Windows services, auto-start entries and scheduled tasks. The feature can be managed in the following locations:
          • Realtime Scans - Click 'Settings' > 'Advanced Protection' > 'Miscellaneous' > ' Apply the selected action to unrecognized autorun entries to new/modified registry items'
          • On-Demand Scans - Click 'Settings' > 'Antivirus Settings' > 'Scans' > 'select the scan profile' > 'Options' > 'Apply this action to suspicious auto-run processes'.
          • XCS will disable apps that attempt to modify protected registry items if 'Terminate and Disable' is chosen for 'Apply this action to suspicious auto-run processes'.
          • You can also unblock applications that you think are safe.
          View and manage blocked autorun items
          • Click 'Tasks' at the top-left of the home screen
          • Click the 'Unblock Autoruns' tile
          • The interface shows all auto-run items blocked by XCS:
