📎 AI Summary:
The original poster, Peterr, is trying to remove Defender 11 protection history entries in Windows 11, but enfrentes challenges because existing solutions seem to be for Windows 10, and a known MS glitch persists despite updates. Other users suggest the process should be similar to Windows 10 and that manual removal is possible, but Peterr finds that batch files and guides are ineffective on Windows 11. Overall, Peterr is seeking an effective method to clear these entries, suspecting registry issues, but has yet to find a working solution.

How can you remove the Defender 11 protection history entries? I have quite a list.
I tried Google and YouTube along with 4 other sources and they do not work They say Windows 11 but I think they're 10.

I have been trying to clear the entries and think the issue is that the batch file is for Windows 10 mot 11.
I know I am beating a dead horse but that list is long -does its job but I would like to remove it at least for a while. What is the Windows 11 way to do this. I have compared my file explorer chain with others who seem to be successful.
When I use the batch file and click I see (unknown) which I delete but nothing happens.

There is no real need to do so, but the process should be the same as Windows 10 if you wish to remove them. (Manual process)

I tried all the ways on the web and then with MS went through the steps and some. The MS agent said there is a glitch known to MS that should be corrected with the next update but last night I received a cumulative update to no avail. That agent said he is getting many calls or chats about this malfunction. I realize there is no need but I have many bocks which is good but would like to clear that page. Especially because most people can which leads me to think I could have a problem in the registry
