    Defender Settings automatically closes

    Hi Adam,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. I understand that you are unable to open Windows Defender settings.
    I will surely help you to fix this issue.

    To understand the issue better, let me know, if you have any third party antivirus softwares installed on the computer?

    Try the steps listed here:

    Method 1:

    If you have any third party antivirus software installed on the computer, I suggest you to uninstall that and then try to open Windows Defender settings.

    Disclaimer: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable or uninstall your antivirus software.
    If you have to temporarily disable or uninstall it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled or uninstalled, your computer is vulnerable
    to attacks.

    Method 2:

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to set the computer in a clean boot state and check. Setting the system in a clean boot state will help to identify if any third party applications or startup items are causing the issue.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Warning:

    1. Applies to Windows 10.

    2. After clean boot troubleshooting steps, refer to the section "How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot" in the provided link to return your computer to Normal startup
    mode.

    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of the issue so that we can assist you further.
