Daniel,
I'll play devil's advocate hither and enquire you the more than important question of "why"?
Since the purpose of these notifications is to examine files acting in potentially malicious means that may also contain personal information, these should only display in rare occasions on nearly machines. If they are popping up more oft, I'd be asking the question of why, since this indicates either the potential of a local infection or risky beliefs that should typically exist avoided.
In my ain case I'd also had the automatic upload of such files disabled previous to Windows x, mostly in order to always be made aware when any sort of file was being requested. Yet, once Defender became more aggressive in making these requests, I thought about this and realized I had no reason to be concerned well-nigh whatsoever of the executable file types this about typically requests for upload and since I would always be made aware first if any personal info might be included based on file blazon, still had this choice.
"When Windows Defender Antivirus is turned on, or is running because Limited Periodic Scanning is enabled, information technology will automatically send reports to Microsoft that incorporate data near suspected malware and other unwanted software, and it may as well ship files that could contain malware. If a report is probable to incorporate personal data, the report is not sent automatically, and yous'll be prompted earlier information technology is sent."
Microsoft Privacy Statement – nether Windows - Security and Safety Features section
In other words, the very act of disabling this feature is what typically makes it then "noisy" and in fact is unnecessary, since you'll always exist prompted if the file(s) requested might contain personal data.
Even if the files requested are sent, information technology'southward however not probable your private files will ever be reviewed by a human, since virtually of these operations have e'er been performed by automated processes, with the increase in deject based detections automating an fifty-fifty greater percent of such evaluations.
Antivirus evolved – Microsoft Secure
The pick is yours of course, but I've personally plant that the act of attempting to protect myself from such automatic actions is simply limiting the ability of the security awarding to perform it's purpose and nada else.

This doesn't look like information technology will really disable the procedure, it only means information technology's more difficult for me to know about. I don't desire this running at all.

Thanks for the detailed response, Rob.
I appreciate that you put a lot of endeavor into your answer, merely it doesn't really reply any questions and is largely unhelpful. This might exist improve suited on a question similar, "Is information technology worth disabling automated sending of antivirus samples?".
To answer your question, there are a few reasons.
- I like to keep my laptop running as lean as possible. I accept this is a fairly lightweight process, but I don't need it, so I don't want information technology running.
- Equally I mentioned this running on a laptop. Battery and data is often limited, and I don't desire to be spending that on these kinds of processes.
- Perhaps most chiefly, privacy. These are my files, on my computer, and read by a human or non, I don't want them being sent off, certainly without my permission.
As to why this is happening, I doubtable it'southward based on the volume of new or deleted files on your reckoner. As a freelancing software developer I work on a lot of projects, and create a lot of builds, and this seems to be when they popup the almost. This compounds on the reasons I don't want this happening every bit their files I've created and so I know they're non malicious, and my projects are often under NDA.
At present, debating the reasons I don't desire this happening goes across the scope of this mail (actually asking for them probably goes beyond this postal service). This post is simply nearly how to stop sending antivirus samples to Microsoft.
Cheers,
Daniel

It would have made sense to just state in your first post that yous were a software developer, since I would respond differently in that instance.
Whatsoever developer always has a different set of issues and my standard response in this instance is to notice a 3rd-party security production, since the Microsoft products are specifically tuned to consumer needs and often unfriendly to the processes required in developing software.
During development the monitoring components of Defender are frequently operating in overdrive due to the non-typical situations such as unsigned code and unidentified executables. I don't know why whatever serious developer attempts to utilize the free Microsoft security products, since they're designed specifically to provide gratis protection when no 3rd-party production is installed, which nearly commonly occurs with consumers.
Defender will likely never be programmer friendly for these reasons, so I'd cease wasting time with it and utilize any developer forums you may frequent to discuss which third-party security products might be. If you're operating in an isolated environment you might expect into disabling Defender manually, though that's something I won't ever inquiry or recommend here in a consumer forum for obvious reasons. I've also seen discussions where disabling is becoming more than difficult, again likely for obvious reasons for this costless consumer focused product.

Now, debating the reasons I don't want this happening goes beyond the scope of this postal service (really asking for them probably goes beyond this postal service). This post is merely about how to stop sending antivirus samples to Microsoft.
You lot might want to have a look at this Windows IT Pro Center document:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-united states/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/enable-cloud-protection-windows-defender-antivirus
And as well the documentation for:
-SubmitSamplesConsent
Specifies how Windows Defender checks for user consent for certain samples. If consent has previously been granted, Windows Defender submits the samples. Otherwise, if the MAPSReporting parameter does not have a value of Disabled, Windows Defender prompts the user for consent. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- 0: Ever prompt
- 1: Ship condom samples automatically
- 2: Never send
- 3: Transport all samples automatically
-MAPSReporting
Specifies the blazon of membership in Microsoft Active Protection Service. Microsoft Active Protection Service is an online community that helps you cull how to respond to potential threats. The community also helps prevent the spread of new malicious software. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- 0: Disabled. Send no information to Microsoft. This is the default value.
- one: Basic membership. Send basic information to Microsoft virtually detected software, including where the software came from, the deportment that you utilise or that apply automatically, and whether the actions succeeded.
- 2: Advanced membership. In addition to basic information, send more than information to Microsoft almost malicious software, spyware, and potentially unwanted software, including the location of the software, file names, how the software operates, and how it affects your computer.

Just note that if y'all specify a value of iii for the -SubmitSamplesConsent parameter, it volition be rejected by the PowerShell interpreter:
The bug report for the outcome is here; and I see that they've now corrected that reference to Set-MpPreference -SubmitSamplesConsent 3 in the document cited above (without whatever acknowledgement, of course), only they plain still haven't corrected the documentation for the Fix-MpPreference cmdlet:

Other issues with the Set-MpPreference documentation:
