    So, I was googling this issue and found a discussion by Harold E1. I have the opposite problem: Defender Limited Periodic Scanning keeps turning on each time my computer restarts.

    Windows must be very tired-refuses to stay awake

    Hi, there are several extensive threads on this. Please feel free to search the forum and use it as a resource.

    example: I searched the forum for

    Refining the search may give more results- I suggest you try
    Solved sleep minutes

    If you find no solution, please post back listing what you've tried. Good luck

    Thanks @Hydrate! Followed Step 3 of Option 2 and rebooted ... problem solved!

    I'll keep an eye on it for the next couple of days and if all stays good, I will mark this thread closed.

    Windows defender will not stay on

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.

    I will certainly help you with this.

    Please provide the below information.


    • Did you make any changes prior to this issue?

    • Have you installed any anti-virus software?


    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps.

    Method 1: I would suggest you to make the “Windows defender Service” startup type to “Automatic”.

    Follow these steps:

    a. Press “Windows key + R” from keyboard.

    b. Type “services.msc” without quotes in the “Run” Window and hit enter.

    c. Search for “Windows Defender Service”.

    d. Make “Startup Type” to “Automatic”.

    e. Restart the computer and then check how it works.

    Method 2: Perform System File Check (SFC), and then check if this fixes the issue.

    Follow the steps:

    a. Press “Windows Key + Q” to open Charms Bar.

    b. Type “cmd” without quotes in the search box.

    c. On the left pane, right click on the “cmd” option and select “Run as Administrator”.

    d. Type ‘sfc /scannow’ without quotes and hit enter.

    Note: It may ask for windows installation DVD to fix and to enable SFC to make more than minor repairs. Some files saved on your computer might get deleted when fixing corrupted files.



    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.
