    Defender will only do periodic scanning, no real time protection

    Hello,

    This issue may happen if other security software, such as antivirus, anti-spyware, or anti-malware programs, are fully or partially installed on the computer. Windows Defender automatically turns off if you install another antivirus app.

    Let us uncheck security messages for Virus Protection and Spyware, kindly follow the steps below:

    • Press the Windows key + X, then select Control Panel.
    • Click on Security and Maintenance.
    • Click the Change Security and Maintenance Settings.
    • Uncheck Spyware and unwanted software protection and Virus Protection.
    • Click OK.
    • Restart the device for the changes to take effect.
    After the device restarted, make a full system scan using Windows defender.

    To turn on real-time protection, do the steps below:

    • Select the Start button, then select Settings.
    • Click on Update & Security > Windows Defender.
    • Turn on Real-time protection.

    Update us on the results.

    Regards.

    Real Time Protection

    Real-time protection for which security program, wont turn back on? Are you referring to Windows Defender? You should not have both Defender and AVG installed and running.

    Suggest you completely remove AVG. Then run the specific removal tool, found in below thread, to clear out remnants. It's absolutely necessary to use the tool in addition to normal uninstall.

    Windows defender real time protection cant be turned on.

    Go to Security and Maintenance, look in 'Security' and see what program is listed under Virus Protection. Windows Defender will not be enabled and functioning properly if there is a program other than Windows Defender listed.

    You tried all suggestions in my previous post and Windows Defender “real time protection”
    still will not turn on?

    Did you try everything suggested in Problems
    starting Windows Defender in Windows 8/8.1/10
    to include (but not limited to) running SFC, scanning for malware and running the software removal tools for any security software (AVG,
    McAfee, Norton, whatever) that may have previously been on the computer followed by a reboot? List of
