Microsoft has blocked a Trend Micro driver from running on Windows 10 - and Trend has withdrawn downloads of its rootkit detector that uses the driver - after the code appeared to game Redmond's QA tests. We note that while the driver appears in other Trend Micro products, they may not necessarily be using the now-blocked driver, or may have received a suitable hot fix, and thus will continue working on Windows 10 20H1. Trend Micro has ignored our repeated requests for an explanation as to why its software altered its operation specifically while under test, though it insisted "At no time was the Trend Micro team avoiding certification requirements." A spokesperson for Trend was not available for immediate comment on the move to block the driver on Windows 10.
