    2 Windows Defender notification icons running at startup?


    Hello-,

    This is a fairly new PC and i'm not sure if I ever noticed this before but anyone know or see this before? 2 Windows Defender instances running at startup?

    I installed Emsisoft about a month ago I don't believe that wouldn't have anything to do with it. I only have one Defender icon running also...

    If I right click on either entry they both point to this file same location: MSASCuiL

    Thanks

    :)

    Windows Defender wants to run at startup


    Upon further investigation, I notice that what's in the startup is the Windows Defender Notification Icon (MSASCuil.exe).

    What I'm still not clear on is what's stated within the highlighted bit on the top image below.

    The bottom image shows the Windows Defender Notification Icon (MSASCuil.exe) within the Startup.

    2 Windows Defender notification icons running at startup?

    GPU-Z Program Icon Submission

    Suggestion to have an option to change Notification Area icon this way too.
    Suggestion to finally have proper separate Options window like most (all?) Windows programs do.
