  1. Can't stop Antimalware Service Executable on Windows 10.


    Hey guys,

    So, I'm trying to stop my Antimalware Service Executable on my windows 10 because it's severely impacting my computer's performance, so I am running the Task Scheduler as administrator and trying to uncheck the 'Run with highest privileges' box on the Windows Defender Scheduled Scan tab, but it does not allow me to. I can't uncheck this box, or click any other option on the Security Options.

    Does anyone knows how to get over this issue?
