How do I turn off real -time protection?

Hi Rahul,

If you have Windows 10, you are getting the latest antivirus protection with Windows Defender. Windows Defender actively helps in protecting your PC from malware (malicious software), viruses, and security threats. Windows Defender uses real-time protection.

To turn Windows Defender real-time protection on or off, follow the steps below:

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

If the on /off button is greyed out, refer to the answer of José Antonio
Pontón Posada CEO on this thread for troubleshooting steps.

Let us know if you have other concerns.

We appreciate your response. We suggest that you try to turn on Windows Defender Real Time Protection from a Hidden Administrator account. To enable Hidden Administrator, the following are the steps:

• Right-click on the Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the command prompt, type in net user administrator /active:yes and press Enter.
• Log out and log back in using the Administrator account.

What I want in an OS

No this isn't Microsoft's site, although there are a lot of Microsoft MVPs here. I might add that those MVPs are private individuals the same as you and me. IOW, they don't "report back" to Microsoft; they come here to help folks with computer problems.

Microsoft cannot keep up with everything in the computer world. There are just too many forums and websites that deal with computers. Posting to those websites and forums doesn't guarantee that Microsoft will see our wants and needs.

Off the top of my head I'll list what I can think of:

Windows Seven Forums
Windows Eight Forums
Windows Ten Forums
CNET
PCWorld
ZDNet
HP Forums
Dell Forums

The only real way that we can be sure Microsoft sees what we think is to click on the Feedback icon in the Start menu and tell them what we think, want, suggest, etc. How else will MS know?
