Windows 10: How to turn on periodic scanning using only the command prompt

Hi, Windows Defender automatically disables periodic scanning when another antivirus program is installed on the device. A scan then cannot be initiated from the command prompt without first enabling periodic scanning. What is the command to enable periodic scanning from the command prompt? Thanks.

:)

 

command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

 

Limited Periodic Scanning turns off

Hello!

I use third-part antivirus. After Anniversary Update in Windows defender is option Limited Periodic Scanning. I turn it ON, but after 5 minutes Limited Periodic Scanning is automatic OFF. And every time when i restart my PC, i need to turn it ON.

Any suggestions?

Limited Periodic Scanning turns off

I use Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.0.1 MP5

In Windows Defender i need to use only Limited Periodic Scanning. SEP is default antivirus.

Microsoft says:

Enabling Windows 10 Limited Periodic Scanning <--- THIS TURNS OFF


If you are not using Windows Defender as your antivirus program on Windows 10, you can enable
Limited Periodic Scanning under Settings.

• Navigate to Settings -> Update & Security ->
  Windows Defender.
• Turn Limited Periodic Scanning on.
