    RUN Windows Defender simultaneously with Malwarebytes

    If you are using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware with real-time protection, then it is replacement for Windows Defender (since you won't be able to run more than one real-time Anti-Malware product). If you uninstall Malwarebytes, you could go back to Windows
    Defender. There is another option, if you use Malwarebytes scanner (not real-time antimalware), you could run Windows Defender and it together.

    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

    Malwarebytes Antimalware and Windows Defender

    Can't run Windows Defender

    Win Defender Security Centre lists my Virus and Threat Protection as disabled. The message reads "Your Virus & threat Protection is managed by your organization."

    This happened a month ago and was resolved when I thoroughly removed Malwarebytes, though it and Win Defender had co-existed without trouble for some years. Now Malwarebytes is gone, no other antimalware software in place. Anyone suggest what could be
    disabling Win Defender?
