Defender scanning of system restore points tiresome

Defender repeatedly, over several weeks, thinks it finds Aureate spyware in
things like this
C:\System Volume
Information\_restore{D7F09AD0-72AE-4F47-A409-6B24DA972980}\RP1075\A0125167.exe->(wise0081)

which I take to be related to windows system restore points. As Defender
cannot get rid of these, and neither can I (correct me if I'm wrong), I'd
rather have an option to stop it scanning the thing in the first place.
 
Hello Peter,

Remove previous system restore points

First Create a New Restore Point

Goto Start Menu > Run > And copy & paste this in


%SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe


Press Enter, Choose create a restore point and Next , Name it and press
Create

Next clear the infected Restore Points

Goto Start Menu and Run and type

cleanmgr


Press Enter, Goto the "More Options" tab and press Clean up on the System
Restore area to remove all the restore points except the one we just created

Reboot back to normal mode.

I hope this post is helpful.
Let us know how it works ºut.
