Concerned about installing Spotlights

[Curtis Branch]

I'm a new customer to the A320X and absolutely love it, but I'm quite nervous about installing Spotlights.  Based on a number of posts here, several users have required a P3D reinstall.  There have also been posts about adding exemptions in Windows Defender in order to get it working properly, but my Install Guide doesn't mention anything about these exemptions....so does that mean they're no longer necessary?  Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

I overcame my hesitancy and installed it, and everything is working fine.  I know the horror stories I read are a small percentage of users, but I've done a complete P3D reinstall before and it was long and painful.  Now on to better things, like flying the A320.
