    Defender Antirus Question


    Hello

    When Windows 10 founds a threat and I want keep it. I select: Actions, Allow.

    But then, Defender comes again.

    Now, I think I should install a 3rd party antivirus software and disable Defender completely. Is this even possible?

    :)

    Windows update and windows defender issues

    We suggest you to avoid installing any cleaner or anti-virus software that may interrupt the function of Windows Defender. Make sure that Windows Defender is always on. To do this follow these steps:

    • On the Start menu, type Windows Defender and hit enter.
    • Click Settings.
    • Turn Real-time protection on.
    We also recommend you to install the latest update for Windows Defender.
