Shadow Defender on Windows 11

Hi Terry,

Yeah, it comes down to either disable Core Isolation (CI) in order to use SD, or enable CI and do without SD.

I've chosen the latter option on my personal 2023 laptop (Win11 24H2) because I prefer the OS protection that CI affords. However, SD is still running great on the family's 2016 laptop (no TPM, therefore not capable of supporting CI).

 

CI does not require TPM 2.0. I can enable it in a 10-year old desktop with TPM 1.2, but I prefer to continue using Shadow Defender.

Edit - CI is related to virtualization, but not to TPM. It can be enabled in a computer without any TPM.
