{ unexpected error sorry we ran into a problem windows defender } what is the probleme ?

Hi,

It can be because you have another antivirus program installed on your computer. It disables Windows Defender when there's a different antivirus program. If you don't have any other antiviruses, we'd like to ask for the following information to better assist
you:

• Is this a recent event or an ongoing issue?
• Were there any changes, recent updates, and newly installed applications on your device that may have affected your Windows Defender?
• To avoid repetition, can you provide us with all the troubleshooting steps that you've done so far?
