A nugget from the Windows 10 Event log

While investigating why Outlook stopped working, I found the following in the EventLog:

Win10: controlled folder access

I’ve enabled controlled folder access on my work Windows 10 machine.  Now it is giving me notifications like:

win10-ransomare

The idea is fine, of course I need to finetune the settings (and one click brings to the relevant settings page), but how the §$%& should I know which program to white-list? I cannot find a way to get the full path of the offending program.

I need to search.

Why is there no “Application ‘full path’ is trying to make changes: whitelist y/n” dialogue?
