Windows 10: I got a virus and now I cant scan!

I got a virus, tried to scan, but failed. I did a fresh start and did it but then had to shut down. Booted back up and it disabled again, but this time the enable disappeared. Any help?

Windows Security Virus Scan

Please confirm you don't have a list like this:




e.g. from here (or via the control panel):




If not, suggests deeper problems. To which uninstall option are you referring? (A picture is worth...)

 

Windows Security Virus Scan

Yes that's exactly what I have. If you notice there is an uninstall option next to organize if you scroll to other updates ie. office, but it will disappear once you scroll to the latest updates.

 

Virus Scan ONLY tool?

I was using Malwarebytes to run scans on things I downloaded to make sure they're clean before I run them... but now Malwarebytes wants to run constantly and wants to do virus scans all the time, even though I told it not to (I'll scan a single file then it starts another threat scan on its own).

Are there any good tools that do virus scanning only?
