    WINDOWS DEFENDER IN SYSTEM TRAY

    Yes, I have done that part already. However, it will only show the Defender in the system tray after I actually go to the Defender & click on it. It does not show the Defender in the system when I start up my computer right away, as the Windows Essentials
    did in Windows 7. I did not have to actually click on that to have it show in the system tray & show that it was on & working. With Defender it seems I still have to manually click on it for it to show in the system tray.
