On Friday 13 January, an erroneous protection rule had been activated in the Defender software by Microsoft in the morning. For those with that rule active, certain shortcuts were mistakenly considered malicious and removed. The error was acknowledged by Microsoft and quickly switched back off.

DICT has worked out a solution to put the most important shortcuts back in the Start menu (i.e. not on the Desktop). This application runs automatically. In the Message window at the bottom right, you can then see notifications of the 'Shortcut Repair' application from UGent's Intune Company Portal ('Company Portal'). More info on the Company Portal.

Nowhere was the linked software removed, nor any data or documents. So all software still works. You can always start any application via Explorer/Explorer by looking for the software there or you can, for example, start Word via a .docx file. Or e.g. create a new Word file by right-clicking.

Follow up the further status via the helpdesk website.
