    Antimalware Service Executable Runs at Startup


    The issue is Antimalware Service Executable starts automatically at startup and makes my system unresponsive for long time. I know that "Windows Defender" scans files in background to provide us real-time protection but I haven't downloaded or stored even a single new file. I use only legit softwares and games. I have recently clean installed windows since then I haven't downloaded a suspicious file.


    So how can I disable this specially at startup? I know it is not safe but I am taking necessary precautions so I never need it.

    :)
