+> If you're using Group Policy to manage Microsoft Defender Antivirus settings, keep in mind that any changes made to tamper-protected settings are ignored. If you must make changes to a device and those changes are blocked by tamper protection, use [troubleshooting mode](enable-troubleshooting-mode.md) to temporarily disable tamper protection on the device. After troubleshooting mode ends, any changes made to tamper-protected settings are reverted to their configured state. To change the values on tamper-protected settings permanently, disable tamper protection temporarily before turning it back on after the settings have changed. Keep in mind that this method can pose security risks, and doesn't work on devices that are offline when tamper protection was temporarily disabled. For this reason, we recommend using other management methods for Defender for Endpoint settings, such as Intune, instead of using Group Policy.
