In Event Viewer (Application) I continue to get this message. What does it
mean and is it a problem? It has appeared regularly since April 24.

"Windows Defender Real-Time Protection checkpoint has encountered an error
and failed to start.
User: WHITE\Dal
Checkpoint ID: 27
Error Code: 0x800700ff
Error description: The extended attributes are inconsistent. "
 
This is something I've never seen before. I don't have any idea how to
figure out what checkpoint that would be.

Do you know of any changes to your system on that date?
