Microsoft released advanced hunting queries (AHQs) and a PowerShell script to find and recover some of the Windows application shortcuts deleted Friday morning by a buggy Microsoft Defender ASR rule.

Early morning on January 13th, Microsoft released a new Microsoft Defender signature update that included a change to the Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) rule known as "Block Win32 API calls from Office macro" in Configuration Manager and "Win32 imports from Office macro code" in Intune.
