Windows 10: Malwarebytes and windows defender

Glad to hear it. Please click the "Solved" box at the bottom of the thread. It will help other users that might come across the same issue.

 

Today on both our computers windows defender was disabled because of Malwarebytes I assume.

Defender disabled by Malwarebytes?

[Merged]

Windows 10 accepts Malwarebytes as complete antivirus, and will not allow full Defender to work.

Yet, according to many searches Malwarebytes is not considered to be a complete antivirus.

I had to remove Malwarebytes from my laptop to get Defender to work fully.

Any suggestions about how to use complete Defender while running Malwarebytes

antimalware & antivirus software

I have Windows 10 and use Windows Defender with MalwareBytes, there was a problem with MalwareBytes not running on Windows 10 for a short while, happily that has now been resolved. Defender and MalwareBytes together should be all you need,

 

Shouldntnormally do that I have both ok

 

Malwarebytes will not disable Windows Defender. It runs along side it perfectly. I have them both installed and running right now.

 

Malwarebytes Premium?

On two computers at the same time can not be coinsidence

 

Yes, I have Premium on Malwarebytes. Can you please open Malwarebyte and click on Settings on the left side. Scroll down to where it shows this:





Please try toggling this to Never register. Then check your Windows Defender Security Center. See if Defender is actually running. Or please let me know what it says in the Windows Defender Security Center.

 

Yep, never register did the job after boot
