Windows Defender refusing to allow photos to be uploaded to icloud
Windows Defender continues to block uploading of photos to iCloud.
I can log on to iCloud but Windows Defender won't let any changes to my PC to allow iCloud to upload the photos. Won't allow any iCloud changes thru the firewall and; won't accept iCloud as as an exception (permitting use and utility as it does other applications like Word and Excel.
I am running Windows 10 Pro, (Updates are current).
Computer is Surface Pro (Build Dec 2017); OS is up-to-date.
Thanks
