    Windows security warnings


    On the advice of an article from the internet, I turned something on in Windows Security that prevents unauthorized changes to system files or something like that. Unfortunately for me, now I get the following error report about every 20 minutes. Looked through WS settings and could not find what I turned on. Can someone help me mitigate these warnings or turn off the setting?

    :)

    security warning on edge

    Hi,


    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.


    • Which is the default home page in Microsoft Edge?

    • Since when are you facing this issue?

    • Did you make any changes prior to this issue?
    I suggest you to Clear caches and cookies and check if it helps.


    • Open Microsoft EDGE.

    • After that click on (…) “More action” option which is visible at top right side of the browser and you will see “Settings” option.

    • Under “Settings” scroll down and you will see a button “Choose what to clear” under “Clear browsing data” option.

    • Once you click on this option you will see list of feature, Select Cached data and file.

    • Here you need to check the option you want to clear and click “Clear” button.

    If the issue persist I suggest you to send us the screen shot of the Security Warning message.

  3. Windows 10 asks for the Security Warning?

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    As you are opening favorites from the Internet Explorer it might warn you while accessing websites.

    If they are known websites, you may add those links as a trusted site and you will not get the warning.

    To do so follow these steps.

    • Press Win + R key on the keyboard and type inetcpl.cpl
      and hit Enter.
    • Click Security Tab and click Trusted Sites.
    • Click Add and add the website that you trust.
    Hope this information helps.
