    How do I turn off this "antimalware executable" nonsense?


    I tried regedit, I tried deleting the file itself, I tried disabling it in services, I tried turning it off in task manager, I tried turning off real-time protection- nothing works. It keeps eating away at my memory and CPU like <removed> is that? Billion dollar company can't fix this issue and I know I'm not the only one having this problem. What really ticks me off about this **** is that when you try to turn it off in any way you're halted by a "Nah, your master doesn't allow you to do this buddy" message. <removed>.

    Antimalware Service Executable

    Hello,

    Currently I'm facing a problem with the antimalware service executable. It uses half of my memory, I did tried some solutions such as: Change Windows Defender’s schedule and Add Antimalware Service Executable to Windows Defender exclusion list. However, none of these solutions has yet fixed my issue. Any help is appreciated.

    Should I install another antivirus program?

    2 Antimalware service executables

    Thank you Carlo TJ.

    I followed the steps but there are 2 Antimalware service executables even in clean boot.

    Is there anything that can be done other than this?
