Download Defendrix.
Defendrix targets Windows 10 (build 17763+) and Windows 11. Release-candidate artifacts appear only after signing, compatibility, lifecycle, and release validation.
Installer (.exe)
Wizard-driven install to C:\Program Files\Defendrix\. Adds Start Menu shortcuts, registers the elevated autostart task, and configures a private/domain Windows Firewall rule. Microsoft Defender stays enabled and receives no Defendrix exclusion.
No published installer URL and digest are provisioned. The release gate remains closed.
Portable ZIP
Drop it into any folder; it makes no registry writes. Useful for evaluation, lab environments, and air-gapped machines. Runs alongside Microsoft Defender.

deploy.exe: the image-bake tool
Run this on your reference PC and it installs Defendrix, pre-loads your license key, and arms the unattended-activation flag. Then you Sysprep and clone as usual. Every PC deployed from the captured image activates itself on first boot, with nothing to install or type on the target machines.
- No LAN transport or WinRM involved, and nothing to prep on target PCs
- UAC-elevated on launch (installs software + writes HKLM)
- Detects your license key type automatically
- Per-machine activation with DPAPI-stored random credentials
Included with the Enterprise plan.
Silent install (for IT teams)
Push the verified installer from PsExec, your RMM, or Intune. Use the protected Enterprise provisioning package for unattended activation; it binds the server, tenant secret, license, environment, and activation flag as one locked configuration.
DefendrixSetup-v2.0.0.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART
Do not place a license key or tenant secret in command-line arguments or ordinary registry values. The Enterprise provisioning flow stores the complete configuration in protected machine state, then each PC detects its own hardware identity and claims exactly one seat.
