    How to make the Windows Defender or the Anti-malware Service Executable trust specific programs


    My CPU usage has been spiking a lot recently since I'm using programs that use a big amount of cpu utilization all of my cpu usage is 20-40% on average.
    Now, I've noticed that the Anti-Malware Service is using a lot of CPU usage while I'm running those programs, so I thought of making those programs trusted by it so that my CPU usage doesn't spike.
    My CPU is 4 cores, 8 threads, 3.6GHz, 12M Cache. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    :)

    anti malware service executable

    I did a complete scan on the PC through Windows defender (win 10) and I saw anti malware service executable in the task manager. It's the first time I do a complete scan. Question: Was this in the task
    manager before or I didnt notice it?. I read that it is wasting a lot of cpu usage. If I close it, my pc will be vulnerable to malwares?. Thanks in advance!

    Windows Defender should always be running in the background, should always start up and run each time the computer is turned on or awakened from sleep mode and it should be running in task manager any time the computer is on.

    I haven't run a full scan in several months...Windows Defender automatically runs a weekly quick scan which searches the most likely locations for malware.

    Some users (myself included) run an occasional scan (every month or so) with an independent scanner such as the ones listed in List
    of Malware Removal Tools

    I ran the Emsisoft Emergency Kit last month to see if Windows Defender had missed anything. There was no malware detected.

    Do I need other Anti-Malware other than Windows Defender

    Depends which Windows version you are using.

    In Windows 7 Windows Defender is NOT an Anti-Virus program. Meaning you do need to install an Anti-Virus program.

    In Windows 8 + 10 Windows Defender IS an Anti-Virus program. Meaning you don't have to install an Anti-Virus program.
